A post at Acts of the Apostasy that made me laugh: [url="http://actsoftheapostasy.wordpress.com/2012/09/27/top-ten-rejected-religious-orders/"]http://actsoftheapos...ligious-orders/[/url] (Even the comments are good.)

Here's the list he made:

Fortunately, Vatican insiders have provided the AoftheA Rome Office a list of all the orders, societies and organizations that have been denied over the past twelve months. The intrepid staff whittled the list down to the Top Ten Rejected Religious Orders.[list=1]
[*]Canons Regular of the Congregation of Mr. Spock

[*]Order Of The Time Lords of High Holy Gallifrey

[*]Missionaries of the Perpetual Catholic Meme

[*]Order of Displaced Carmelites

[*]Congregation for the Elimination of the Designated Hitter Rule

[*]Missionary Servants of Patheos

[*]Sons and Daughters of Church Hall Bingo

[*]Catholic Foreign Mission Society of Liturgical Dancers Holding Incense Bowls

[*]Oblates of Giant Puppets

[*]St. Hedwig’s Order of the Phoenix

I can't really think of much. Maybe the rest of you have better creative juices?

Oh, and the post has a little at the beginning that I didn't quote, so y'all might want to actually follow the link. (And, no, I'm not from the South. I just like the word y'all.)

We had the "Sisters of Our Lady of Temperance" in one topic. I was the foundress and we were dedicated to preventing the heresy of cheesecakeism.

Hum hum, in the first place this is the cassock every bisshop is ought to wear during liturgy. Some other prelates or people with certain functions (like masters of ceremony of a bisshop) also have the privilege to wear the great purple.
