I was flippantly seeing what was online for ordination papers, and found one for free. There was a section, though, of the ad that read:
For a small love offering of only $19.50, you will receive Ordination and a beautiful MINISTERIAL CERTIFICATE. Order Now and we will also rush you FREE our finest quality MINISTERIAL WALLET LICENSE! Both will have your name imprinted and bear the official Church "Gold Seal". Our Credentials are legally recognized by all Government agencies.

Amazing stuff...
You get what you pay for. -
It should go on to read...
"That's right folks, act now, and we will throw in a free membership to Baptistboard!!!! all for the low, low price of $19.50!!!
But wait!!! That's not all...
Want to really impress your parishoners? If you act within the next 25 minutes.. we will also give you a free Joel Osteen mask!!!
That way, when you don't feel like smiling, you just slip on the mask...
And KABOOM! you have a permanent smile!"
That's what I would have written anyway!! lol -

There is a Church in Mansfield, Ohio that sent me Ordination Certificate... after I had been ordainded through another denomination.
Their reasoning? My ordination would not allow me to officiate at weddings or funerals in any state but the one I was ordained in. LOL
My real ordination was after much study, proving of by the presbyter, and laying on of hands by the presbyter.
The second?? No proving, no laying on of hands. I reckon you understand why I don't use the one from Mansfield.
OH, btw, my original ordination does allow officiating in any state as long as I fill out permits at the courthouse first. Open Door tried to argue that I could not, but neighboring state told me as long as I brought my ministerial card that came with the Certificate from the fellowship where I was proved, there would be no problems.
Reckon Open Door was just trying to get into my meager finances? -

" hehehehhe. Let's take up a love offering for their love offering and get erdained!!!!!" Or in the case of Tim "nerdained" per his own admission in another thread. :laugh:
I'm really honestly hurt. I went through that long drawn out process of ordination and didn't get a billfold card. Should have shopped around - dumby me, you never do anything right, stupid man you .............. -
To my knowledge, Pennsylvania is the first state to restrict "mail-order" ordination [LINK].

Maybe after Saggy and Tatertot become ordained they can set you straight! -
lol
I think it might be better stated as:
The Online Ordination for Tater and Saggy (TOOTS) -
-
-
that such an one is not interested in studying to make one's self approved unto God,
As in the book of Judges, such an one appears to have no king and does what is right in one's own eyes. -

Does that make Tater and Saggy a couple of Tootsies, which is probably better than being a couple of Stoolies.

As long as that ordination can make you some cash or get you some standing in society, that's all that matters! :BangHead:
I did see a Universal Life Church ordination mentioned on a church's website the other day. I think that grrrl or guy, whichever it was, might have also had the TOOTS certification too. :thumbs: -
Get this::::
YOU HAVE NOW BEEN ORDAINED!A RECORD WILL BE KEPT AT OUR HEADQUARTERS
