From Ambrose Bierce's Devil's Dictionary (1911):
Christian, n. One who believes that the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbor. One who follows the teachings of Christ in so far as they are not inconsistent with a life of sin.
Pray, v. To ask that the laws of the universe be annulled in behalf of a single petitioner confessedly unworthy.
