But even though the laity preferred his catechism,
Little did he know that he would found Lutheranism;
Trade pageantry
For pedantry
And German pietism.
By Faith Alone St. Peter’s Throne was rent into a schism!
II.
This protest dance was all the rage, the latest hottest -ism.
‘Twas right up there with Fred Astaire and Moravianism.
“Do it yourself”
Flew off the shelf
And outsold Biblicism.
By Faith Alone St. Peter’s Throne was rent into a schism!
III.
Priests married nuns and taught the Huns a new nationalism.
They turned the “trans” into a “con” to end cannibalism.
Rome kept watch ’cause
Prots smashed tsotchkes,
Quashing Paganism.
By Faith Alone St. Peter’s Throne was rent into a schism!
IV.
Fat Henry couldn’t sire a line to serve his nepotism,
So suddenly he had a yen for late scholasticism.
The dons showed how
To make priests bow
And even how to quiz ‘em.
By Faith Alone St. Peter’s Throne was rent into a schism!
V.
Next thing you know the Prots set sail, all full of optimism,
For ports unknown to found a home for Anglo-Calvinism.
What they did here
In yesteryear
Made Rome a solipsism.
By Faith Alone St. Peter’s Throne was rent into a schism!
VI.
Now moderns do the dans macabre of Nietschean narcissism
And superexistentialisticgaiamysticism.
“Embrace your Fate”
As you await
The final cataclism!
By Faith Alone St. Peter’s Throne was rent into a schism!
Bigod it IS the coolest thing ever! And “why should the Devil have all the tricks?” It calls for a recitation of the Marty Hop:

I don’t know why the Marty Hop posted twice, but please feel free to take down one or both. I feel bad enough as it is for the presumptuous lengths of these posts. If it was my fault I apologize. We’ve all made mistakes. I know I have. I’ve done things I’m not proud of. I can only pray that with the Lord’s help I can manage somehow to put this behind me and learn from my mistakes, and move on. Moreover, it would be nice if you didn’t notice that I am the subject of every one of these sentences but one. So blame on that woman, Miss Lewinsky.
I have to say that this is the first thing that I have read in a while that actually made me want to become a Roman Catholic!
