Frisbeetarianism is a parody religion of obscure origins. The basic tenet is that when you die, your soul goes up on a roof and you can't get it down. A lesser known aspect is the holy event known as "The Ascension", which is where someone comes along with a ladder and collects all the souls. What happens then is open to debate, though one theory is that the souls are brought back down in a sort of ultimate reincarnation.
Frisbeetarianism is similar in spirit to Pastafarianism, but has not gained nearly the same popularity. It is a fairly obvious play on Presbyterianism and Frisbee; one of the most common fates for a Frisbee is to end up out of reach on a roof or other high object. However, the worst possible punishment that could happen to a frisbee is to be cracked on impact with the roof and later collected and burned. The best thing that could happen to a frisbetarian is to be collected and join the great ultimate game in the sky. This religion is most popular among players of Frisbee-related sports, such as Ultimate.

I invented a new religion called 'Frisbeetarianism' which is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck there until a really big wind comes along.

Different translations of the bible would suggest love and charity are synonmus. Examples found in.1st Corrinthians ch. 13 vs. 1-17 illustrate this many times. I would enjoy hearing from a scholar of the languages used in those past times to clarify my understanding. The story of the "World's Poorest Philanthropist", Gilbert "Harold" Ewing II (myself) is the reason for this querry. The " act of grace", or charity, reffered to in the news interview, has posited this question and I lack the sort of education to provide any insights of true value.
