Second Amendment pumpkin chuckin
Father Orthoduck wishes to contribute this video to the Second Amendment discussion on one of Father Ernesto’s posts. This is a video of the Second Amendment, the world champion pumpkin chucking gun for several years running.

On designing your own religion
Father Orthoduck was quite amused to have the comic above published on the same day as the latest commentary by Terry Mattingly on church trends.
