Doxology - The Entries

doxology, n.

A short formula of praise to God, esp. one in liturgical use; spec. the Gloria in excelsis or ‘Greater doxology’, the Gloria Patri or ‘Lesser doxology’, or some metrical formula, such as the verse beginning ‘Praise God from whom all blessings flow’.

Dogsology: the utterance of praise of dog

Now thank we all our dog
With Hartz and Iams and Ballard,
At wonderous sniffs for rot,
His doggie nose rejoices.
Who from his kennel farm
To us has found his way,
To sit at table, stare
And mooch what scraps he may.

To be sung to the music of Felix Mendelhound.

AND THE WINNING ENTRY IS...

Doxology 101

Take a deity. Call him or her God.
         Devote a millennium to religious mythology
                  Boil down the theology into memorable units
                           Make songs out of the units
                                    Repeat the songs endlessly in public.
                           Export the songs through foreign missions
                  Start missions at home
         Bring your outreach to the seaports
Now you have a docks-solid doxology

Yep, you read it right.  Doug is the winner again, and was in competition with himself.

I'm going to chalk this lack of involvement up to the long weekend interruption.
