FUPPPSYLVANIA,
October 19, 2004: Reacting to an article
reported in The New York Times
today,
Maxwell Fife,
a Boxer, barked out, "Heaven
forfend!"
The article that got
Fife's ruff up
reported on the fact that the Anglican Communion, an international
body representing the second largest church group in the world, with
77 million members in 164 countries, has issued a rebuke to the
Episcopal Church USA for supporting an openly gay priest and same
sex unions in New Hampshire. "What is wrong with the Church,
anyhow?" the indignant Fife sputtered. "Who are they to
deny same sex pleasures and rights to any and all?"
"Y'er right, mate,"
Fife's chums around the bar at the Snug Pub agreed. "Since when is
it OK for the head of a church to cut off what the good Lord knows
is just human and canine nature? Not since 'Enery burned down
the Abbey have the blokes in charge got it so wrong. Though of
course in that case it was the King and not the Church wot got it
bolixed."
Much foaming at the
mouth ensued around the bar as the regulars fussed and fumed over
the news and their pints. "Maybe we should get a pack together and storm the 'eadquarters
in London,"
Reggie
Muttonian suggested
to Fife.
With the tolerant
folk of FUPPPSYLVANIA behind it, such a movement could take root.
Stay tuned. We'll keep you informed. For now, send your
letter of support for same sex NIPtuals to us today!
Lord bless!
