If it makes you feel better, I actually am an ordained minister.

By what, the Unitarian church or the U.C.C.? Or are you one of those Pagan Anabaptists who has sex with his mule and worships a giant golden pitchfork and things he's going to be saved by having a shaggy hippy beard?

Are you serious?  And what does ULC stand for?

Daven

Yes, completely serious.

ULC = Universal Life Church.  A christian church that, frankly, doesn't care what you believe.

That's where I got my original ordination, too...

It's not that bad.  There are some fringe benefits.  Particularly if its a fringe group.

Bullshit makes the flowers grow.

Quote from: FinnyhahaSo you can all do weddings and shizzle?

Yep.  All legal in every state, and they fought many battles to make sure.  All the individual has to do is register with the state and make sure that they are obeying the law in the local area.  

Marry, bury, baptise and preach.  Do it all.  Plus, I can incorporate as a church, and get tax exemption and take up collections.  Have to report it all to the mother church (in Modesto CA), but that's not a big deal.  

Hell, I can even pronounce you all Reverends too.

Their basic philosophy is that there are only three things that everyone needs:  Freedom, Food and Sex.  All else is window dressing.  They also believe that since you feel a call to the Ministry, that you are already ordained by God.  This is JUST the legal recognition so you can perform holy ordinences in the eyes of Ceasar.

Personally, while I take it seriously, there are many who think the ordination is about as valid and "special" as finding a prize in the Cracker Jack Box, or getting a pink colored piece of gum in Double Bubble wrapper.  Or as special as an Earl Scheib paint job.
