God Rest Ye Unitarians Let Nothing You Dismay. . .

Well other than this brand-spanking new plagU*Urized parody version of that Big Fat U*U Christmas Carol known U*U World-wide as 'God Rest Ye Unitarians', which by all rights *should* dismay 21st Century Unitarians aka Unitarian Universalists aka members in The U*U Movement who actually bother to honor and uphold the 4th Principle of Unitarian Universalism which calls upon U*Us to enter into a free and genuinely responsible search for the Truth and meaning of this parody version of a Unitarian Universalist parody version of the traditional Christmas carol 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen'. . .

Like 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen' there seem to be a few different versions of 'God Rest Ye Unitarians' aka 'God Rest You Unitarians', so I am taking the liberty of presenting two somewhat different versions of my parody song based on these two different versions of 'God Rest Ye Unitarians'

Version 1 is based on this version of 'God Rest Ye Unitarians'

God test ye, Unitarians, with Truth U*Us dismay;
Remember there's NO evidence
This was pure hearsay;
When girls were raped is quite well known,
No matter what *they* say,
O, Tidings of Reason and fact, Reason and fact,
Sad tidings of Reason and fact.

There was a Mack of Northborough, there IS a right or wrong;
There *could* be U*U wise men, but the work just takes too long. . .
The "stories" in this letter are hysterical and WRONG
O, Tidings of Reason and fact, Reason and fact,
Sad tidings of Reason and fact.

Our current blogging customs expose U*U bullshit and abuse,
From "conduct unbecoming" to blasphemy law misuse.
We know our so-called blasphemy is just telling U*U Truth,
O, Tidings of Reason and fact, Reason and fact,
Sad tidings of Reason and fact.


Version 2 is based upon this version of 'God Rest Ye Unitarians' courtesy on the Renegade Eye blog -

God test ye, Unitarians, with Truth U*Us dismay;
Remember there's NO evidence
To prove what U*Us say;

When girls were raped is quite well known,
No matter what *they* say,
O, Tidings of Reason and fact, Reason and fact,
Sad tidings of Reason and fact.

Our current blogging customs expose
U*U mockery and jape,
From "conduct unbecoming" to "pedophilia and rape".

This whole darn Stikeman spiel is just
UUA "Red Tape",
O, Tidings of Reason and fact, Reason and fact,
Sad tidings of Reason and fact.

There was a Mack of Northborough,
there was a Richard Buell;
There *could* have been some wise men,
but the VEEP was such a fool. . .

The "stories" in this letter are hubristic U*U stool,
O, Tidings of Reason and fact, Reason and fact,
Sad tidings of Reason and fact!


This parody song is sung to the tune of the traditional Christmas carol 'God Rest You, Merry Gentlemen' as per this "viral" YouTube video of 'James Bach and His No Man Band' "performing" 'God Rest Ye Unitarians'. . .






Personally I MUCH prefer The BareNaked Ladies version of the original Christmas carol 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman', especially when Sarah McLachlan sings along with them. . .





The original version of 'God Rest Ye Unitarians' is copyright 1990 by Rev. Christopher Gist Raible of the First Unitarian Church of Worcester MA. Apperently the lyrics may be found in 'Hymns for the Cerebration of Strife'.
