Ever had dreams of being a rabbi, imam, priest or swami? How about a Klingon priest or a leader in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster? Well now there is an app that can get “ordination on the go”. With a flick of the finger, you can become one anyway (in your cell phone universe, at least).
As CNN notes, you can’t actually attain any legitimate religious credentials through this new app, but you can see what you’d look like “wearing the religious garb of different clerics, and read brief and humorous summaries of various world religions.”
Tony Jones, a minister who is currently the theologian-in-residence at Solomon Porch, a Christian ministry, is the mastermind behind the app.
