Just last night and this morning, I was thinking through the details of a speculative future religion that deifies Kermit the Frog. Seriously. I had to do something while I was lying awake all night. I still cannot sit for long periods of time in a desk chair. So I lay on the couch and thought about a Kermit the Frog religion. Like you do. Of all the days to learn a word such as "batrachian". Wow. "Batrachian" is going straight into the credal elements of the religion -- <i>à la</i> Douglas Adams, use of esoteric vocabulary (and the unwillingness to define the words when asked) would be crucial aspects of top-down control in such a religion.
