35. As long as they're doing it, they may as well have fun with it. You can't eat just one.

Someone made a petition to rename communion wafers to ‘Jeez-Its’ and I’m here for it

I’ve long been skeptical of the effectiveness of Change.org petitions. It’s a rather simple process to use throwaway email addresses to artificially inflate the results, and the results can be ignored as easily as deleting an email. But finally, I think the perfect Change.org petition has come our way. The petition? To rename communion wafers as “Jeez-Its.”

Think about all the possible spinoffs. We could have white cheddar Jeez-Its. We could have jalapeño Jeez-Its. Salt and vinegar Jeez-Its. Hell, this could completely transform the Catholic Church. It’ll help them recover from the numerous scandals they’re facing, and put a fun new spin on worship.
