Nepal Says God Must Go To School
MORE news from Napal, where the hunt for a virgin girl-child has been abandoned.
No, dear reader, Napal is not twinned with Basildon. The search for the “living goddess” has been scrapped after it was branded outdated by the supreme court. The Beaks have ruled that the “deity” must go to school.
More on that here.
Says the supreme court:
“There should be no bar on the Kumaris from going to school … as there are no historical and religious documents restricting Kumaris from enjoying child rights.”
Which begs the thorny question: what do you teach a God? Humility would be start, and there’s always a forward roll in PE and geography, but what else..?

Always a sound plan; goddesses can get remarkably picky over little things like who got the last roast potato, sorry, largest sacrifice, and when you are immortal you can really get a decent grudge going.
I would hope that her teachers will avoid the old ‘cook your son and feed it to the god to test her omniscience’ ploy; the House of Atreus never did get over that one…

Being nice to worshippers is a pretty good attribute in a deity, though there are limits to divine benevolence.
Lightning Bolts 101 would be a useful addition to the curriculum…
