The Church of the SubGenius has awarded posthumous Sainthood to late performer and actress Anna Nicole Smith.
The
Church acknowledged Miss Smith's fey, outrageous lifestyle and agreed
that it meets its standards for Sainthood. Church founder J.R. "Bob"
Dobbs laid down a set of rules for members of the Church to live their
lives, and Miss Smith's life has met the following criteria:
She spent her life Slacking Off, and did not conform to the expectations of others.
She achieved fame and fortune not through hard work or intelligence, but basically through dumb holy luck.
As
seen from her many photos and TV appearances, she ate the hell out of
her fair share of cheeseburgers. This meets the definition of a
SubGenius commandment: "Don't just eat that hamburger, eat the HELL out
of it!"
She was martyred by the "Pinks" (a SubGenius term referring to "normal people"), after being crucified in the press.
Like
Saint Mary Magdalene of the Catholic Church, her child is a "Son of
Man". Unlike Mary, who claimed that no mortal was the father of her
child, it seems as though every male (and perhaps a few female) mortals
are claiming to be the father of her child. The Church uses this as the
basis for its prediction that Miss Smith's child shall be a prophet of
the SubGenius.
The Church of the SubGenius encourages wholesome sexuality, which Miss Smith exuded to excess (at least during her prime years).
In
the official Calendar of SubGenius Saints, the date of May 1st will be
set aside for honoring Miss Smith. She will share this day with Saint
Catherine I (The Great) of Russia, who also had Sainthood bestowed on
her posthumously by the Church.
