Much earlier in this thread, one of our number reported that he had found this thread on Google by searching for 'Church of the Children of Turtle Pie", the result of which I verified.
I have just conducted the same search again, and lo, not only is this thread the first result, but the quote from the page linked to read thus :
"Armed thusly, none shall come to pass that will harm you"- Shrike78- High Chaplain of the Church of the Children of Turtle pie ..."
We retain our place in the Respected Tomes of Google, and our Master of Sanctity is also recognised !
It is so! I have also verifyed that it mentions the pie-ouses of which is Saint Yams!
Let the almighty Trutle Pie arm thee in faceing the unknown, for it is the strongest wepon of all! Long live the church!

Dude, its for fun. I am going through conformation from a REAL church, but this is just a fun way to mess around on a forum. If you dont like it, then you can leave, but stop bugging us about it.

Very nicely put.
In all seriousness, though, may your faith bring you all that you hope.
I am not a religious man myself, but I've always maintained that an open mind to the beliefs of others is the simplest form of respect a person can show. All faiths have their place in society with the exception, IMO, of those factions that actively encourage hostility toward those not of that faith.

Brothers! Through your sweat, and blood, and the strength of your conviction, the holy cause of Turtle Pie has grown strong indeed. The works of devotion to Turtle Pie, and it's followers and guardians fill my heart with righteous pride unabated.
We have faced obstacles, but we have overcome them, and risen all the stronger because of them.
For special devotion shown to our cause, I think that it is time we recognize a few of our number who have consistenly shown their devotion. Their names I will list presently.

Follow the word of the Turtle Pie. Bathe your soul in its holy warmth and partake in its delicious redemption. Let not the temptation of Lesser desserts divert you, for All is Pie, and Turtle is All
97% of people have useless and blatantly false statistics in their sigs, if you are one of the 8% who doesn't, paste this in your sig to show just what a rebel you are
After much consideration, and after reviewing their brave efforts for the cause of the omni-dessert I have found several who are, I believe, ready for larger slices of the pie.
Reaper6: For his continued supply of holy images, and his teachings of the way of turtle pie, I believe he is ready to ascend to the rank of Librarian.
Happygrunt, for his obvious enthusiasm in pursecuting heretics, I would raise to the rank of zealot, so that he may continue in his defence of the followers of turtle pie.
As always, the nominations must be seconded to take effect.

It would be unethical to speak about my own nomination for advancement, but of Happygrunt I can certainly speak fairly.
Happygrunt has, indeed, started down the path of Purger of the Unrighteous. He has studied well the teachings of The Great Turtle and managed to resist taking a prematurely large slice of The Blessed Pie. Any mistakes he has made thus far have been minor, and he has worked hard to learn from these, channelling the strength of these lessons into his increasing devotion to The Blessed Omni-dessert.
In my current position as Scholar of the Church of the Children of Turtle Pie I have watched his progress with interest and feel he is, indeed, destined for great things in the defence of our order.
I duly, and with much gladness, forward my vote in favour of raising Happygrunt to the rank of Zealot Protectoris of the Church of the Children of Turtle Pie.
All Praise the Protection of the Great Shelled One and it's union with the Sustainance Most Holy.

My thanks to those for allowing my nomination. I second Reaper6, for his alowed me to delve into the deepness of the mostholy food. His understanding of religion will alow him to go far. And i accept my new rank, and will do all in my power to defend the followers of the Most holy turtle pie. FOR THE PIE BROTHERS! BURN THE HERETICS!
edit: do any of the people in the church have steam?

As a replacement for that close call, toy food guy has joined our most holy cause.
He is under the impression that toy food is more edible than real food. This could result in him tricking our foes into thinking that the Turtle Pie is in fact toy food, and not real food at all.
Of course, we can't forget his powers of mindf*ckery should the above not work.
I believe he will further fortify our defense against those who would take the Pie.
Argh, a supporter of our worst enemies (apart from the accursed Gunther): LOLcats!

I think it is a small fraction of Jesus worshiping Christians who have psychic powers.

Don't make me cleanse and purge! I'm doing it too much, but it is unfortunately required to show the unbeliever. So don't make me, because it wont be very nice!
