The alternative worshippers

A larger version of this cartoon is here, along with links to a high resolution version for paying subscribers and instructions on how to become one of those.

I’m not sure if this cartoon is deep and insightful or just a bit silly. You can make your own mind up.

Those interested in reflecting on different denominations and styles of churches could do worse than to read this post:

I even managed to comment, which I was pleased about. The first Blogger blog which has allowed me to log in since July.

    Fab! Though it’s probably the 6th floor, what with the ground floor being the ground floor and all.

    I saw something extremely wierd in the supermarket today, although perhaps not appropriate for this blog, because it made it very clear it was developed with the knowledge and approval of the Muslem Council of Great Britain. OTOH, you could say that they are alternative worshippers.

    It was a chocolate countdown calender for Ramadan. At the end of each day’s fast, Kiddo gets a chocolate.

    Like I said, it might not be totally appropriate here, but I just had to tell someone.

    Hi, very insightful….also silly, just in the right proportion.

    ps. emma’s right about the 6th floor thing. I would never have spotted that!

    maybe the building is on a slope and the groundfloor is lower at the other side, you never can tell…
    maybe Dave cannot count and you have just exposed his deep secret!

    Emma! That was my secret which I was hoping that no-one would notice. I think though that in certain countries the ground floor is called the first floor – I was just being sensitive to readers from those countries. Jojo’s answer (about the slope) is also a good one. Unknown to you there is also a basement and lower basement (where the laundry is carried out).

    Norway calls the ground floor the first floor which confused me when I was trying to find my hotel room. So maybe these are Norwegian alternative worshippers

    In the best traditions of good comedy, it is both silly and insightful, nice blend.
