Welcome to the Church of Banana. Is this a strange 'sign of the times' that a new breed of 'preachers' might be taking over the net? Freedom of religion? I think so.
Mike: the High Priest of the Yellow Peel
Peter: the Peeling Pharaoh of Pun-ishment
Brian: the Grand Master Cardinal Rabi of DisInformation
Pierre: the Digital Dignitary
Banana Fanatics: the Keepers of the Code
And there you have it, the pioneers of the banana religion. Their motto is simple: “Remember: Love your Bananas… and they will love you.”
Everyone is welcome to join the Church of the Banana which, for now, is just a web-church.
As they stated, "we don’t push our beliefs on anyone. Ours is a religion of choice, as well as energetic debate and enlightenment."
Fact, or fiction? You decide.
