Object: Bad Parable Writing Contest!
So there were these two baby elephant seals, and one said to the
other: "Well evolution is just a theory". And then they ran into these
12 strawmen, who are not really strawmen per se but actually more like
scarecrows and the head strawman said: "I know this dung beetle who
once knew a stray Autrailian dingo who once saw a really mean
evolutionary biologist once. Darwinism is baaaad".
"But that you means you are going on hearsay!" exclaimed the original
elephant seal. Not the one who spoke up in the first place but the
other one.
But fortunately a crowd of wingnuts, which are literally wingnuts and
not some metaphor describing a group of homo sapiens who exhibit
massive cognitive defects showed up for the dispute, and the head
wingnut said: "I believe you".
And so the two elephant seals were called "real" detectives by the
crowd. The main elephant seal was hired by CSI but he got ran over by
a truck.

I think this would be oh so much better if the seal was run over by a bus,
instead.

The Holy Book instructs us to PRAY without ending. Every second of
every day to the glory and edification of our purpose to exist. The
perfect being without the blemish of sin, the HOLY being we PRAY to
give us every breath of life ( if HE wants), the PERFECT holiness for
all existence now and forever. The HOLY PERFECT BEING, we are unworthy
to be even BE in his BRILLANCE OF PERFECT LOVE lest we be consumed by
his PERFECTION. Verily, the cursed, smitten filth of HIS creation
shall be rendered conscious and reborn as HE takes years to destroy
his wicked creations that LOVE HIM NOT!
OH! LORD! I have a bill to pay. HELP ME!
And the LORD provideth a check on the Fifteenth from McDonald's.
The LORD providest!

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then where does evil come from?
Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God?

It's not a parable. It's a True Story (tm).

I hate to tell you, but you lose already. If you can't do worse than the
parables that inspired the contest, you might as well not even compete.

Writing bad parable is actually a very difficult thing to do, as I
learned the hard way.
