This is definitely from the N.O. Church.

Yeah, doubtless it was from novus ordo or (more likely) protestant churches... but I was surprised at how dead-serious it's being taken here. For instance, if you were an editor, you might see things like this all the time. They may be, in some cases "bad" mistakes... but I certainly thought they were funny...

I thought they were hilarious! Even though I'd seen a lot of them before, they still made me laugh again.

I laughed at each one of them.
