Praise Yeezus! Kanye West gets his own religion, 'Yeezianity'
"I AM a God," Kanye West proclaims over and over in one of the songs on his latest album, Yeezus (the album's title itself a mixture of his nickname - 'Ye - and Jesus).
Pronounce yourself God enough times and eventually your fans agree. The newly-launched website Yeezianity.com is for those looking to convert to Yeezianity, which proudly advertises itself as "THE BEST CHURCH OF ALL TIME!!!!!"
"We are an anonymous group who believes that the one who calls himself Yeezus is a divine being who has been sent by God to usher in a New Age of humanity," explain the Yeezites (or is that Yeezians?) on the site.

Also on the site are various rules, 'pillars' and declarations of faith, including 'Faith be in Yeezus' and 'I believe Yeezus will lead us into a new Age of Creativity'. Amen.
The creator of 'Yeezianity' has spoken to Vice on condition of anonymity - and it seems that no, Yeezianity isn't a joke.
"Jesus has all this baggage and all these connotations, and Yeezus is this new thing - and that's why I say in the 'Our Saviour' part of the site, "We don't speak of his public persona." Because Yeezus is when Kanye elevates to that God-level, which I feel like we all have the potential to do," he told them.
Jesus has too much baggage, so you choose to worship a Kardashian-impregnating, award show-interrupting, tantrum-throwing rapper? Makes sense to us.
If you're undergoing a profound religious awakening while reading this, we'd like to invite you to step into the light: joining the church as is simple as emailing them "an unidentifiable picture of yourself holding up a piece of paper or some other creative design stating, 'I Believe In Yeezus.'"
