When will America stop worshipping the Christian god in favor of legit worshipping companies? - eviltoast

This question is a joke. Also, the mods should add a joke tag to allow dumb answers.

    We don’t worship the Christian god. If you look at a US dollar bill, this is explained quite clearly.
    In God We Trust.
    This is printed right there, on our real god: money.

      Blasphemer! “Money” is always spelled with a capital letter! or are you not a capitalist?

        Our Money, which art in our wallet.
        Hallowed be thy buying power.
        Thy interest come, thy inflation be done.
        In our bank accounts as it is in the Fed.
        Buy us this day our daily bread,
        and forgive us our impulse buys
        as we forgive those who advertise against us.
        And lead us not into poverty
        but deliver us from want.
        For thine is the Kingdom, the power, and the wealth
        for ever and ever.
        Cha-ching!

          This is gooood! It’s it original? (sorry not meaning to be a dick)

          I feel like it weekend slightly around impulse buys and advertising, but otherwise I love it!

            Yup, just made it up on the spot. Granted, I had to use Wikipedia to remind me of the original text of the Lord’s Prayer. It’s been a few decades since I broke away from the indoctrination of my youth.
