"You have to sign this petition! It's to get Congress to require all envelopes to be self-adhesive. When you lick an envelope flap, the Post Office runs it through a scanner that takes a DNA sample. Then they match that up with your name based on the return address. Homeland Security claims to be keeping the information to know how best to protect Americans from a gene-based terrorist attack, but if the wrong people came into power, they could use it for eugenics and put everyone with a certain chromosome combination into concentration camps! So will you sign the petition?"

"Um...I don't know, dude. Sounds a little tinfoily to me."

tinfoil hat 

Propoganda designed to cover up a massive government conspiracy. Begining in the late 1970's, the United States government tried to cover up its radio-wave thought-control program by circulating a false rumor that people could shield their minds from government intrusion by wearing a tinfoil hat. In truth, a tinfoil hat only improves reception and makes it easier for the government to read your mind. Speak truth to power!

Take off that tinfoil hat, you fool, the black helicopters are coming!

The premise of this religion is to worship the tinfoil ball and the contents within the doctrine contain the key to restarting the Crusades. You can make up the rest however you want and the Lent through Easter period is when the original Crusades will be celebrated.
