“Lamb: “Praise Chac from whom all blessings flow””

The problem with your use of Christian phraseology here is that Christianity explicitly rejects not only human, but animal and even botanical sacrifice.

I’m sure you wouldn’t like to imply anything about Christianity that wasn’t strictly true.

I don’t think a little satire about religion’s “phraseology” is bad. After all, the phrases are simply something a human wrote, not the actual words of God inscribed on stone.

Isn’t Christianity all about Christ’s self-sacrifice for humanity? The sacrifice of One for the many so to speak.

And aside from the dicta of faith, if I were you, I wouldn’t want to delve too closely into the canons of liturgy and ritual that involve eating and drinking the transubstantiated body and blood of Christ.
