If you want to explore the ellipsis-- if you feel the need for a slightly expanded version of the Sacred Scripture, an Anglican divine has just the book for you.

An appeal from our founder, Dr. Jeffrey Mirus:

    Finally. Fr. Guido Sarducci's 5 minute university sketch from Saturday Night Live has been made available, in ecumenical splendor (not to be confused with Virtue's Splendor), for Anglicans.
