It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I was going to say. Problem #1 with a True Church of Jedi is the schism over whether the Force is inborn and predestined, or born of free will. And then you have people bisecting one another with light sabers, and the Huguenot wars all over again!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

See, when I think of Bartlism, I think of a religion where followers respond to requests for them to work by saying, "I would prefer not to."

Don't make me nail to your door a list of 95 ways in which okra is the one true vegetable.

Just you try it! Hey, here's a holy quest...find me 95 actually GOOD recipes featuring okra as a main ingredient and you get a free pass to Heaven.

See, when I think of Bartlism, I think of a religion where followers respond to requests for them to work by saying, "I would prefer not to."

That's the old testament. The NEW testament is embodied in a sweet, obedient pooch who is leading the way for others to find true peace and treats. Lo, the church of Bartlism .
