Why concentrate on you — lowly, moribund, material worker bees that you are — when you can instead gain glory by beatifying Him? You are to be secular nuns married to the fashionably slender Godhead of State. And for your sacrifice and subjugation, He in turn will offer you grace in lieu of a gravy bowl. — Until the money runs out or he leaves office, whichever comes first.
