Talk About Inventive Liturgy...
It's good to be King. Mswati III of Swaziland recently presided at a ceremony in which "tens of thousands" (according to Reuters) of bare-breasted virgins competed in order to choose his 14th wife. As you might expect, Mswati is an absolute Monarch, the last in Sub-Saharan Africa.
You might think that having thousands of half-naked women parade by the king (dressed in a leopard-skin loin cloth) is part of some ancient and respectable tradition. Actually, the King instituted this "ceremony" in 1999! Lol.
