Happy Turkey Day everybody!!! And now, the unveiling of the Turkey Creed.
Edited on Thu Nov-27-08 08:17 AM by peruban
Warning: This post contains sensitive :sarcasm:, so please ease your finger off the "offended" button. I'm Catholic and even I found this hilarious when I wrote it just now.

I include my newly revamped Thanksgiving Day Creed:

We believe in one Turkey,
the Poultry, the Almighty,
Maker of dinner and mirth,
and of all things edible and inedible.

We believe in one bird, Thomas Turkey,
the only Fowl of Thanksgiving,
Bird from bird, white meat from white meat,
true bird from true bird,
hatched, not made,
of one Bird with the with the Fowl;
With Him all things were eaten.
For us and our satisfaction
he came down from the turkey farm,
was incarnate of the preheated oven and the fertilized egg
and became truly turkey.

For our sake he was baked on a Pompous Plate;
he suffered and was eaten.
On the third day he rose again
In accordance with the leftovers;
he ascended into sandwiches
and sitteth next to a stomach full of stuffing and cranberry jelly.
He will come again in glory to judge the full and the overstuffed,
and his leftovers will have no end.

We believe in the giblet gravy, the Fowl, the giver of food,
who proceeds from the turkey farm,
who with the turkey and the pumpkin pie is eaten and complimented,
who has spoken through the recipe books.
We believe in one universal and family get together.
We acknowledge one dinner for filling of the stomach.
We look for the awakening of the passed out,
and the liveliness of the drunken arguments to come.

Amen.

:toast:
