For those who question religions, a humorous tale about the start of a church and the odd young man who inadvertently inspired it. The young, mildly schizophrenic Marvin Schwartz travels to learn about life. The people he meets and the events he lives shape his ideas of what God wants for us all. After too many cheap draft beers he learns from the mysterious Zeke Parsnip who smokes unfiltered cigarettes which never burn down and drinks from a glass of beer which is always full. Those lessons he writes down each morning in a loose-leaf notebook with the past night's beery excesses weighing on his brain. That notebook would later inspire the ambitious but unsuccessful Dave Weak to create The Pocontia Valley Non-Denominational Church of the Followers of Zeke Parsnip. At last his fortune was made. That church would survive and flourish long after Marvin Schwartz was gone. Late in his life, the destitute old man Marvin Schwartz has unsettling weird recurring dreams about God and Heaven.
