Giant Catholic papier mache puppets of doom invade Presbyterian liturgy. It’s like the 16th Century Wars of Religion, only ridiculous. Each side spurs the other to escalating levels of absurdity. Dear Presbyterians: please don’t blame us papists. This is the work of a separate denomination called “liturgists” that infests our communion and yours.

Today, my toadies, suckups, sycophants, and shuffling lackeys, I command you to contemplate the question, “What is it about Japan that these stories always seem to come from there?” Your secondary task, analyze this video for any subliminal messages that may cause non-Japanese viewers or listeners to start manifesting Japanese levels of weirdness.
