The best one I've ever heard about was the "Sacred Church Of Larry's Bar And
Grill" down in the Los Angeles area.

Larry's Bar and Grill had topless waitresses. Some of them began to have less
clothes than that. The California ABC moved to shut down the place.

They closed for two weeks. They reopened as the "Sacred Church..." with all the
appropriate paperwork and such. Now the "vestal virgins" can wear anything or
nothing, as they see fit. The holy sacrament of beer is free. However, you had
damned well better "tithe" for your beer or the "holy monks" will take you
outside and cleanse you of your bad habits.

And, the whole damn thing is tax deductible.

shared these priceless pearls of wisdom:

-
-Back in the 80's when people were forming churches for the tax
-deductions, a couple pilot friends discussed forming the Church of
-Whats Happening Now. Their airplanes were to be donated to the church
-so that all their fuel and flying could be deducted as church business.
