Stories set in the Oversaturated World, some silly, some less so.

Sunset let her face hit her desk with a groan, raising her hand. "Miss Harshwhinny? Something importantly stupid just came up, I'm going to need to trance out for a bit."
The teacher clicked her fingers together. "Isn't the expression 'stupidly important?'"
"Trust me, I meant importantly stupid."
"And what, exactly, is this situation?"
"Some of my worshipers are starting a religious war over what I am," Sunset explained. "I'd rather not have a second Romane imperial collapse on my hands, if I could avoid it."
"Ah. Very well, you're free to negotiate and/or smack sense into them, as appropriate." The woman turned to the blue girl next to Sunset. "Miss Dash, I expect you to take notes for her while she's gone."
"Aw, c'mon!"

"In the end," Sunset said at lunch, "it was a dispute over whether my cutie mark is red with yellow parts or yellow with red parts."
"Really?" asked Pinkie.
"No, but it was equally unimportant." Sunset sighed as she picked at her pasta salad. "I never thought I'd say this, but I may need to write a holy text. Anyone want to provide a book?"

"Does it have to be a book?" Dash whined. "I have... issues with books."
"Hey, yeah. If some of your worshipers have dyslexia--"
"Fine! I'll make holy vlog!"

A clear solution. Just be worry about hacking the holy text. And Actually Sunset can holy text people on her phone.
It is kinda tricky to argue over your god when they can just pop in whenever.
The stupid thing is, this actually happened. The Roman empire was (in the most basic sense) split over whether Jesus was man and spirit in two separate parts, man and spirit combined, or one entity that was somehow both man and spirit. Each branded the other two views as heretical. Meanwhile, up in Heaven, Holy Palm adjoined Holy Face.
And lo', did the avatar of magic itself, choose for herself her own holy Ewetube avatar.

Pedantry intensifies.
Though to be fair, during the low middle ages, between periods when the various "barbarian" groups were running amok, the monarchs and religious leaders didn't have too much to do aside from picking apart dogmatic minutia.
I feel these videos can be extremely important on Sunset's situations
Why not? The first holy e-Book! Just leave comments on 'disabled', Sunset. Otherwise, you'll just be transferring the holy wars to cyberspace. The First E-Crusade?
What? What did I do? D:
And it's red with yellow parts, like my mane. Clearly.
7279207 Not really. The Eastern Empire was endlessly riven over rhetorical nonsense like the personage question, while the Western Empire preferred their heresies to be fought over questions of authority, but that had more to do with cultural linguistic differences - apparently Greek makes it much easier to split theological hairs. The stuff the Byzantine fell out over didn't even parse in Latin, the arguments read like gibberish.
The language differences drove the religious differences, not vice versa.
7279592 Watched that series, it was pretty good.
worshippers (has been an error before this, too)
SHOULD still be "woman", shouldn't it?
c'mon
Or just a Holy Wiki.

Actually, worshipers with one p is correct. English is weird sometimes.
That said, thanks for catching the other typos.
Wait... So, they were arguing over her hair being red with yellow parts or vice-versa. Or is that more stupid than being about her icon? ... Well, close enough in stupidity...
As a dyslexic myself, I have to say you should still make the book. I would prefer that to watching a blog series, as I can read rather fast.
I hate video presentation of content that could be processed much faster as text.

Worship(p)er is a weird one, in that both spellings are correct (or at least acceptable to many a spell-checker) here in the US, but as far as I know, only the version with two 'p's is correct in places that use British spelling.
By standard rules of English orthography, though, it really ought to be 'worshipper,' as otherwise the 'i' would be a long vowel.
