This is awesome and rather fun. I wish I could take credit, but it was written by a Robert H. Butler, who is a member of one of my more interesting facebook groups. I should invite him here, if he's not already here!

Notice there are definitions for more than religion-related stuff.

Agnosticism is thinking invisible tomato's can't be known to exist or not exist.

Evolution is tracing the genetic line of the tomato and finding its ancestry through the fossil record and publishing your years of research in peer reviewed journals.

Creationism is believing the invisible tomato created the earthly tomato whole and intact in its current form and thinking the evolution argument is bullshit, conspiracy, and a lie from the invisible tomato's enemy, the invisible orange.

Intelligent Design is being unable to distinguish between the designed and human manufactured ketchup and the undesigned naturally occuring evolved tomato.

The crucifixion is the belief that the invisible tomato sent itself to Earth as a real tomato to be violently turned into ketchup to appease itself in its invisible state, descended into the Heinz Factory, and then restored itself to a living tomato before ascending to heaven to be reunited with the invisible tomato aspect of itself.

Sorry, gang! This was the 1st cut-and-paste post I did, and it didn't occur to me that the lines wouldn't wrap. I'll watch formatting more closely next time. Glad you liked the content, though.

I just copied and pasted it into Word, so I could read the whole thing without using arrow keys etc. It's very good.

Now that I know to swipe left to read each line in it's entirety I like it even more. The only improvement would be to expand the 'Business' one. He's really talking about capitalism.

Very unique way of presenting all religions and related terminology including division of church and state.
