The Feast of Saint Voltaire
Brothers, Sisters, and Transgendered Comedists Everywhere,
This week saw the 314th birthday of François-Marie Arouet, better known as Voltaire. Voltaire is the Comedist John the Baptist, he was a Comedist before there was Comedism. It was Voltaire after all who said,
"God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh."and
"If God did not exist, it would necessary to invent Him."And so, inspired by Voltaire, we Comedists created this religion in order to gain the the inner-strength needed to squirt milk through our collective nose at the great punchlines of the Cosmic Comic.
And so this week, we ask for a partial accounting of God's great jokes. There is, of course, Robin Williams' nomination of the platypus.What other jokes has the Divine Comedian left for us to laugh at?
live, love, and laugh,
