Dear Pastor, Priest, Rabbi, Imam and/or Other Off-brand Religion Clergyperson,

It has come to our attention that a popular television show is offering help from "spiritual advisors."

These spiritual advisors appear to be untrained, unordained and self-proclaimed.

Left alone, these people could do irreparable harm. They might fill people's heads with superstitious nonsense about demon possession, faith healing, snake handling, virgin birth, resurrection after death, etc. etc.

This could set a dangerous precedent and we recommend immediate legal action. As we all know, these subjects are best left to trained professionals.

Faithfully yours,

Other Ways of Knowing LLC, A Legal Corporation
