What We Believe
We believe that everything you need to guide your life and philosophy can be found in the writings of Weird Al Yankovic. His songs contain such deep truths about the universe they could only have been inspired by a higher power.
Which is to say: Weird Al is not a god, but he is a prophet. (Consider how accurately he predicted Mark Hamill “Playing this part [of Luke Skywalker] ’til [he’s] old and grey.”)
As a vessel of the unknown forces beyond our comprehension, Weird Al has given us enduring words of wisdom like “Dare To Be Stupid”, “Eat It”, and “Stop Forwarding That Crap To Me.”
Of course, many of his sacred texts obscure their meaning through metaphor and parable. So, just like any faith that’s based on some famous guy’s writings… It’s all a matter of interpretation.
