| | | Pelagian Drinking Song
There has been much said about drinking on the PB. I submit to you a song. A song about drinking and doctrine.
Pelagian Drinking Song, by Hillaire Belloc (1870-1953)
Pelagius lived at Kardanoel
And taught a doctrine there
How, whether you went to heaven or to hell
It was your own affair.
It had nothing to do with the Church, my boy,
But was your own affair.
No, he didn’t believe
In Adam and Eve
He put no faith therein!
His doubts began
With the Fall of Man
And he laughed at Original Sin.
With my row-ti-tow
Ti-oodly-ow
He laughed at original sin.
Then came the bishop of old Auxerre
Germanus was his name
He tore great handfuls out of his hair
And he called Pelagius shame.
And with his stout Episcopal staff
So thoroughly whacked and banged
The heretics all, both short and tall –
They rather had been hanged.
Oh he whacked them hard, and he banged them long
Upon each and all occasions
Till they bellowed in chorus, loud and strong
Their orthodox persuasions.
With my row-ti-tow
Ti-oodly-ow
Their orthodox persuasions.
Now the faith is old and the Devil bold
Exceedingly bold indeed.
And the masses of doubt that are floating about
Would smother a mortal creed.
But we that sit in a sturdy youth
And still can drink strong ale
Let us put it away to infallible truth
That always shall prevail.
And thank the Lord
For the temporal sword
And howling heretics too.
And all good things
Our Christendom brings
But especially barley brew!
With my row-ti-tow
Ti-oodly-ow
Especially barley brew!

You see, right now all of our "Thankses" are backed up by actual tangible-yet-virtual gold-plated thank you letters in our Puritanboard Reserve. We're not like the FED...we can't keep electronically "printing" "Thankses" out of thin air.
If we continue in our current printings, the "Thank You"'s value will fall to the status of a "Whatever." Already, our "Thank You"'s value has fallen below the Eastern Orthodox's "Much Gratitude" and the Roman Catholic's "'preciate it."
