Of the parody sites I’ve seen, the Church of Google is among the more creative ones, complete with its own charter and description of the holy Google spirit:

Deities are typically described by their unique attributes, such as being all-knowing, all-seeing, ever present, the ability to answer prayers (search in Google’s case), immortality, remembering all (Google cache) and of course Deities must “do no evil”. Google exhibits all of these characteristics perfectly. In the absence of imaginary, supernatural beings, Google is certainly the closest thing humankind has to a true God, as classically defined.

And don’t forget the 10 Commandents of Google which include: “Thou shalt not use reciprocal links nor link farms,” “Thou shalt not use Google as a verb” and my personal favorite: “Thou shalt not manipulate Search Results. Search Engine Optimization is but the work of Microsoft.”

The site can’t resist jabbing Microsoft, referring to the convicted monopolist as Satan in the FAQ. Convinced that this is the religion of the future? You can even learn how to be a minister here.

Fellow GOOG shareholders, sense of humor needed to fully appreciate this one. I didn’t see any mention of the stock on the site, come to think of it. Got to donate to the church.

Did this post make you go hmm?
