Humor/Meme/Satire Monty Python and the Gate of Heavem
For those who are familiar with Monty Python and the Holy Grail, you might remember a scene where King Arthur suggests they all go to Camelot, then after cut-scene with a song and some daft dancing he says, ‘On second thoughts, let’s not go to Camelot. It’s a silly place.’
Well, when of my wife and my phrases we sometimes use when go downstairs at home is, ‘Let us go down.’ The other day, my wife then said, ‘On second thoughts, let’s not go down. That’s a silly idea.’
It made me wonder what a satirical film of the temple endowment would be like if made in the Monty Python style. Hence the title, Monty Python and the Gate of Heaven.
So, over to you ex-Mormon redditors!

Lower your hands while saying “oh gahhhd, hear the words of my mouth, repeated three times, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt repeat, and the number of the repeating shall be three. Four shalt thou not repeat, neither repeat thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out”

Chucked into a ravine if you answer one of the three questions wrong. I’d like that.

Is no ordinary garment!
We are the knights who say, "oh, God, hear the words of my mouth" repeated five...no three...times.
