An Etsy user is actually selling a bible for $20 in which every mention of God’s name has been replaced with Kanye or Yeezus because… well, actually. We have no idea why anyone would do this.
According to the website, the handmade hardcover book is "a novelty coffee-table book, celebrating the grandeur of mega-icon Kanye West. This is the Bible for the New Age."
The online description adds that "three entrepreneurial brothers" are responsible for honoring Mr. Kim Kardashian in this fashion because they possess "a special interest in mass-society and its effects on our worldview and imagination."
We really wish we were making this all up.
"What if the Bible, the most singularly significant publication in the ancient canon of Western tradition, were updated to reflect our modern society? What would it look like?" the users explain.
We can only imagine what Kanye say about this.
Concludes the outline on Etsy:
At it's simplest, it is the book of Genesis, modified to feature ‘Kanye' or ‘Yeezus' in the place of God or Y---A. 'In the beginning Kanye created the heaven and the earth...And Kanye said, Let there be light: and there was light.
In a sense, Kanye's awesome and orchestrated spectacle is truly a religious experience. In a foreword, we explore our consumerist, quick-fix, and information-culture, and celebrate Kanye and the outsized significance he plays in our lives.
All of this, bound in a black, hard-cover gold-leaf imprinted book.
