hey rev, because your religion promotes gay marriages does that mean we can codify it in the constitution as being the ONLY form of marriage?

Now all we need is to have Chuck in here and we can start a "Profanity in the Name of the Lord" society.
Or something like that.

Have I told any of you that I'm a Pope?

How did you do that? Are you even Christian?
Was it free?

Talen, you must now PM Mike to change your name to
Rev. Enforcer Talen to reflect your new position as a servent of YHWH.

I was under the impression that you didn't need any official sanctioning to be a reverend. Unless the World christian church is something special.

A relative of mine(who was working as a chef at the time) became a minister by mail, I believe, as a joke. I think I'll do the same thing.
Can you feel the POWAH! I say, can you feel the POWAH OF THE LAWD!

Dang...I'm going to have to settle for being the
second reverend on the boards. Though I will be the first pastor
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
.
Currently only the church secretary calls me "Reverend," and that's a joke because I've led two sermons (one of our pastors died of liver cancer, and I got drafted to cover for him).

Hey, Talen, you oughta call your particular placed the First United Church of the Sarcastic (FUCS).
My mother suggested I should lead it without realizing what the acronym would be in one of our less reverent joking moments, but it fits you better

I don't even really know what a reverend is, I thought it was something like a Priest?

Not far from it, HDS. A reverend fills the same role as a priest, but without the royal connotations or the "only hotline to God" aura.
As an aside, I'm ordained by both the Universalist church and Spiritual Humanism - both on a personal lark.

Just remember, you don't get tax exemptions unless you can prove you are actively ministering to a congregation.
