You guys have totally missed the point. I recently submitted a petition for defection, and it inspired me to start a thread about creative ways to get excommunicated. Cheese Whiz guy wins.

So I went through the proper channels and sent a petition to the Archbishop requesting formal defection, and I just received his response refusing my request.
Apparently he believes that he has the authority to dictate which religion I will be a member of and I take deep offense to this. So, it’s time to get a little more aggressive.
What would be the best way to get excommunicated? I was thinking of approaching the altar during mass smoking a J and wearing a Planned Parenthood T-shirt, and then pissing in the communion cup. Any other suggestions?[/quote]
Not to be harsh, but are you seriously retarded? Just stop going and start going to another church of your choice. I’m a Lutheran, and we allow all christians to receive communion who are confirmed.
so go to a Methodist, Luther or another church where you;re comfortable and don’t look back. Then send the archbishop a letter and say you’re an official member of St. Joe’s Lutheran, Methodist, ot whatever church and tell him to kiss your ass and btw, you’re not getting more cash from me ever.
Or, just walk away and do your own thing, which would be the mature thing to do.
Okay I see you were joking because you were frustrated, but I still don’t think people should do something negative to get thrown out, you should just leave.
Easy…Go Mussulman…Worked for centuries…

X2,
The fact that you need to start a thread to see our imaginations shows that you have none.

He was about ten at the time.

heres a new one: Read the Da Vinci code outloud during mass. then whenit comes time to pray draw a pentagram on the back of your pew.
I figured it was sorta gods thing not to cast people out, turn them away and abandon them, even if they ask for it (intentionally or not), so I’m guessing the dude that you wrote to (as one of gods own merry marching band) has a duty not to let you go, as maybe god might sue him, or something. I wouldn’t worry about offending him - he has to forgive you or he goes to hell, Mwhhaha.
In your position I’d try seeking the council of a lawyer - I think they’ll be more sympathetic to your needs - can’t possibly imagine why, maybe you could make a deal…
I think most people have failed to see that this is just Eminem seeking more publicity.

Actually, this could be a great, and very inflammatory, discussion by itself.
