"In the beginning Rihanna created the heavens and the earth."

Just weeks after becoming the Mayor of Hell, Michigan and banning all heterosexuals from entering the town, comedian Elijah Daniel has now rewritten the holy bible for the gays.

im going to rewrite the entire bible but change it to be gayer just to piss straights off — fagdad elijah daniel (@elijahdaniel) September 15, 2017

The EDV (Elijah Daniel Version) translation has a few updates from previous editions; Rihanna is God, she made Adam and Steve, not Adam and Eve, and instead of wine, Jesus turns water into mimosas.

The Holy Bible... but gayer is now available on Amazon in its entirety, and the reviews seem mostly positive so far.

But while some are throwing back their heads in laughter over the updated bible, many others are pissed and don't appreciate the delicious irony of it all.

@elijahdaniel why are you poking fun at god? So disrespectful. — Jessica (@Jesskelly99) September 16, 2017

Side note if made a "satire" tweet saying hunt down gays I'd be witch hunted when it comes to jokes it's all ok or non of it is. https://t.co/CHhXJVKqeN — Shiruka (@ShirukawaBLVD) September 17, 2017

this is not the way to do things lmao fighting hate w hate is distasteful but you do you boo — keisha♡ (@lgbtkeisha) September 16, 2017

Daniel is fending off the haters, and says that his satircial gay bible is for all the queer kids out there who were made miserable by the teachings of Christianity, including himself.

you've made my gaybies feel unwelcome with your religion for ages and that's changing now bitch get used to it it's fag time baby — fagdad elijah daniel (@elijahdaniel) September 17, 2017

dont cherry pick the Bible & try to explain it lmao, i know it pretty well seeing as it's the reason i wanted to kill myself until I was 17 https://t.co/QZsz5zVYsM — fagdad elijah daniel (@elijahdaniel) September 17, 2017

Many LGBT people have already told Daniel that his bravery and humor helped them come out to their own familes and friends. One user wrote, "I told myself if u can publish the gay bible & not give a fuck abt criticism then I can come out to my friends today n I did!!! Thank you for giving me the confidence to do this, I've been terrified for a while now." Another posted, "I didn't come out to my parents bc I need a home but u made me feel happier abt my sexuality :')."

if me rewriting the bible & pissing y'all off makes just one lil closeted kid realize it's not that serious then fuck ya bitch keep it comin — fagdad elijah daniel (@elijahdaniel) September 17, 2017

Who knew a gay bible could be so inpsiring? I know how I'm spending the rest of my day.
