Happy Science

[Worldslaziestbusker]

While the topic reads like a nerdic greeting, it is also the name of a young religion from Japan which is causing a stir in Uganda, where the Christians see a demarcation dispute in the offing over who was there first and has more right to fuck with the locals.

the group’s visibility, thanks to old-fashioned missionary work and the frequent appearance of members on national television, has brought scrutiny. Some Christian clerics have gone on the offensive, saying the religion should not be allowed to take root in Uganda. They are especially hostile to an essential part of Happy Science: that Okawa, the 55-year-old former market trader who started the religion in 1986, is also the deity.

[sarcasm]If only Christianity had an earthly embodiment of its deity it could compete on a level playing field. Better yet, an earthly embodiment of its deity who died and into whose mouth every Christian could put their own words. Man, that would be sweet.[/sarcasm]
