Wow....now this sounds quite exciting.... I have never thought of being christened into my very own faith before....but it makes complete sense....... During my lifetime I have lived amongst and worked with many people , from all different faiths and religions ..... And there are areas of all of them that I admire, but no single one calling out to me enough to join them. The Church of Elfin... I Like that !

And so it goes..in rambling thought......And these are my rambling thoughts of the day ...going back to the "theory" or "non-theory" of won't go to heaven if not christened......on the one hand there's me.... NOT christened. But I think it's fair to say I am a "believer".... How many times have I called on God?...He knows !!.....But I do tend to only call on God when I am absolutly desperate ...I dont like to bother him too much. When I am only "semi-desperate".... I mostly call upon my treasured and adored ArchAngel Michael ....which to be fair is most of the time.... And even though he is omnipresent ...I do sometimes feel he be thinking "oh ....it's her Again"...... So yes...it's fair to say God knows I "believe "..... On the other side of the coin... You may have the person that believes in Nothing .... But HAS been christened ...... Therefore , neither are not worthy , in the eyes of the Lord...

Enough rambling, lets get back down to earth here. I think it would be great for you to have your own church. Never mind a christening, you can declare yourself to be the Pope and have a coronation. Although with corona virus running around you may want to call it something else. The Church of Elfin does have a nice ring to it. You could hold mass in a hollow tree, and for communion you could use those tasty fudge cookies that the little elves bake. Although you would have to do a televised mass for now. You could still ship the cookies....its actually more of a must... a sacred sacrament even. You could be Pope Elfin, the televangelist of tasty, preaching the gospel of fudge.....count me in!

Hi....and that was horrific beyond words... Absolutely horrific. I am sorry it had such a negative effect on your new religion. It had a terrible effect on so many things, and the world as a whole........ But I really am liking my new "vocation"....Let's do it !.... We can do the honours at the castle .... Let's start a new faith in memory of 9/11.....

or just start a new religion based on no real beliefs. Let the Holy Spirit/Universe be in charge and provide guidance.

During that time period, one World religious leader gave me a plague claiming I was a Peace Ambassador.

A plague or a plaque?

If the former, that I think would qualify as a faith un-healing.

Although I suppose if it was a plaque it could be a dental un-healing...sort of.
