UU's from Snootytown

Got this in the UU email list today:

Don't know if this is for real or not, but it sure is funny!
THIS COMES FROM A CATHOLIC ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEST. KIDS WERE ASKED
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS. THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS ABOUT
THE BIBLE WERE WRITTEN BY CHILDREN. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN RETOUCHED NOR
CORRECTED. INCORRECT SPELLING HAS BEEN LEFT IN.

1. IN THE FIRST BOOK OF THE BIBLE, GUINESSIS. GOD GOT TIRED OF

CREATING THE WORLD SO HE TOOK THE SABBATH OFF.

I responded:
Hey, some of us were raised as ADDish Unitarians, so we've got little bits of ancient Egyptian monotheism, Zoroastrianism, and obscene Indian statuary inextricably mixed in from those odd Sunday School classes. Not to mention the ancient Mayan jai lai matches. You'd better clear it up and tell us what the "accepted" story is. God drank Guiness because Adams, Bud, and Miller weren't available yet, right? Just can't see him drinking one of those soapy furrin brewskis if an Amurican one was available. And I'm glad to see he got rid of that freakin' heavy metal! That was a bad mistake. Don't know when the can pops anymore. Just like a deef cat that don't hear the opener.
