Actually, I believe John Straughn is moving towards this realization and will begin
recruiting members for his cult in the next 24 hours.  It will be called the
THeosophical Carrot Cult.  TCC, a natural with vegetarians around the globe,
will also have the added advantage of being affiliated with the Church of
the Subgenius, rather than the LCC, and take all those who truly worship
"Bob" on the saucer trip in 1998.

Boiling will be optional, but for those who decide to take this
rigorous course, enlightenment is guaranteed.  The butter ceremony
will commence immediately after scraping and boiling.
