Editor's note: I came close to working this up into a finished cartoon, but I have an unwritten policy of avoiding the appearance of mocking ordinances. That's why you won't see the high school quarterback passing the sacrament, nor will you see the shark* in the baptismal font.

*Yes, it may have been a Great White.
