So… I can believe that we need to eat tuna melts every Friday, but skip the cloven hooves thing? Bacon is delicious!
Oooh, what about other religions? I was always jealous of that giant Jewish feast.
You mean the Yom Kippur feast? You know that you have to fast for a day before that right?
Ooo and all of the religious holidays! And when I am at work, frequent breaks to praise Allah! I've got this all figured out.
Homer, what if I told you that if you do good things for others, God will reward you?
I'd say, “It better be a darn good reward, ‘cause I'm really enjoying all these holidays.”

Okay, I gave a penny to a homeless guy.
I even picked up a piece of trash. Can I have my million dollars now?
That's not how Karma works. You need to put in some effort, and you're never exactly sure when the benefit will come.
Oh, so it's kind of like drinking.

Dad completely misunderstood my rant again. Mom, make him stop!
Stop? I think his idea is lovely. As for me, the most important parts of the Bible are the ones about cleaning!
Now go clean your room Lisa. A clean house is a clean soul!
And the rest of you! Clean up all these pennies littered around Springfield and throw them in the fountain. You can't have too much good Karma!
Mom, it's Karma, not luck!

Collect Karma from the Penny Fountain! It will accumulate Karma every 5 minutes for up to 5 hours, so collect from it often!

Ned, you must be on my side about people cherry-picking religious practices?
Absolutely. We should cherry-pick the hardest parts of each religion and force ourselves to do it.
That's the only way God will know how much we love Him!

Homer, I see you're trying out several religions. Might I suggest Judaism?
No thanks, not interested.
But how can you be sure if you haven't tried it?
I've tried Kosher pizza. And that told me everything I need to know.

Dad, I need a ride to band practice!
Sorry honey, I can't. I need to light a candle for Guru Singh...
And then I need to thank the Magi for bringing gifts to Baby Jesus...
Then after that, Jesus is being born in Russia, so I have to convince Marge to make me twelve different dinners.

Are you sure you can't take me? What about the good karma you'll get for helping someone?
Karma shmarma. I've found a new path to salvation: the Prosperity Gospel!
Right… You mean the view that God rewards His followers with material wealth.

Homer's abrupt swings from religion to religion perfectly illustrate the futility in trying to establish religious truth.
Well you could always just ask me.
Oh, hey God.
I would've thought you'd be more excited to meet the all-powerful Creator in person.
I AM excited to meet you. But my excitement is offset by my sadness at the death of the causal closure of physics implied by our interaction.

So let me guess: you came here because you were offended by Homer's self-interested actions in the name of religion, and you're going to set him straight?
Nah, I just needed a new game -- I got sick of Pokémon Go.

God, if you're so good, how can you allow such a flawed product launch?
I have my reasons. And if you thought THAT was bad, wait ‘til you see what I have in store for driverless cars!
