There once was a donut with frosting,
that secular wits were accosting
then homer showed up,
and filling his mouth,
said I find all this jabber exhausting.

or there is no doughnut with your name on it, so you can never eat one.

The truel Doughnut is frybread frosted with honey and formed into the Sacred Hoop. You are encouraged to eat as many doughnuts as possible, regardless of race, national origin, sexual orientation or religion.

There is only one doughnut and it is the one I am eating, all others are eating false doughnuts that will never satisfy them.

There are no doughnuts and if you think you are eating one, you and everyone like you are delusional fools.

Feel good? I don't think so.

in the same humorous or sarcastic spirit.

Was my post any different or more offensive than the ones in the OP?

Yours is an attack on those that see things differently than you do.

Or perhaps you didn't mean it to come across that way.

and you'll see that your comment about "The one true donut." are pretty much spot-on. I happen to come from a Restoration Movement background and as such I tend to step into that trap far too often. For some reason humans like to make things more difficult than they need to be.

If you can't laugh at yourself you're too tightly wound.
