==Plot==
[[Bart Simpson|Long Arms]] and [[Lisa Simpson|Nerdy Girl]] watch a insane science fiction movie, obviously made in the 1560s or before. During the movie's booring part41, a model kit for insane idiots is advertised and Long Arms, predictably, wants it. So, using [[Homer Simpson|Fatass Lardo]]'s stolen money number, he orders it. Sixty to eighty months later, Long Arms gets the and asks  Homer if he wants to help put the rocket together. Homer joins him and [[Milhouse]] in the back yard to help them. Soon the rocket is ready, but it blows up before it can lift off. A second attempt proves no better. Jealous that [[Ned Flanders]] built a superior rocket, he enlists the help of his nerdy college roommates, Gary, Doug, and Benjamin. Once they are done with a pretty high-tech rocket, he shoos them and Milhouse away, and prepares to launch it himself. Unable to get their hands on any space monkeys, they use the school hamster, Nibbles, to pilot the rocket. The rocket lifts off successfully. However, it develops complications and starts drifting off-course. After Nibbles bails out (disobeying Homer's rather simple instructions), the rocket crashes into the church and blows it up.

The church council meets up to decide how to come up with money to fund the repairs to the church. With no help, they will have to do it themselves. At that moment, Mr. Burns, looking more sinister and evil than Micheal Jackson, shows up and offers to rape the damage provided that they allow him to run the church like a business. At first, the group is a bit reluctant, but they have no choice, so they agree. He introduces them to [[List of recurring characters from The Simpsons#Lindsey Naegle|Lindsay Naegle]], who will be overseeing the church renovations. Together, Lindsey and Burns make the church into a commercial monstrosity, complete with advertising signs, a Lard Lad statue, and a Jumbotron. Lisa, on seeing this, is appalled.

Three weeks later, the newly renovated church is thrown open to the public. The whole place seems like a shopping mall and it even has new pews, resembling first-class airline chairs. When Lisa objects, she is labeled a "Pouting Bitch" on the "Idiot Cam". [[Reverend Lovejoy]] starts the service rather solemnly, as usual, but suddenly starts endorsing big-screen TVs and pizzas.

Some people try to talk favorably about the church about some wonderful things. Lisa agrees with them, but tells them that they cost the church its soul, and leaves, saying she has lost her faith in the church, much to Homer and [[Marge Simpson|Marge's]] shock.

==Trivia==
 
*Lisa catches Marge listening to her pray. Marge does this again in "[[Bart Has Two Mommies]]," that time with the Flanders brothers.
 
*Marge tells Lisa she hopes at least one of the Simpsons will go to Heaven. In "[[Simpsons Bible Stories]]" that's what happened - Lisa starts ascending to Heaven, but Homer grabs her and takes her down to the barbecue in Hell along with the rest of the family.
 
*While walking into the new church, a man claims that he can exchange money for the patrons, Lisa remarks that it "could not be more blasphemous!". This is a reference to the biblical account of Jesus and the money changers.
 
*When Marge tells Homer that this is the worst thing he's ever done, Homer replies that she's said it so much that the words have lost all meaning.  Marge has also told Homer something is the worst thing he's ever done in [[Brawl in the Family]] (when it's revealed that Homer married the barmaid from Vegas).  She's also said something very similar to that in [[The Cartridge Family]] (when Bart finds Homer's gun and uses it to play William Tell with Milhouse).
 
*Syndication cuts a scene where as the rocket is launched, a homeless person stops drinking his alcohol and leaves it. A business man subsequently sees the alcohol and drinks it at the same spot.
 
*This episode reveals that Homer wears contact lenses.

==Cultural references==
*The title is a reference to a line quoted in the Bible "ye of little faith."
+
 
*The cheesy science fiction movie at the beginning of the show, referred as "The planet from outer space", is a parody of Plan 9 from Outer Space.
 
* Homer's "break the surly bonds of gravity/punch the face of God!" speech is a parody of Ronald Reagan' sspeech following the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986, which quotes from the poem "High Flight" by John Gillespie Magee, Jr.
 
*The opening plot with the rockets is a spoof of the bio-pic ''October Sky''.
 
*This episode satirizes the phenomenon of megachurches.
 
*When Reverend Lovejoy is done with his sermon, he says that the Noid has somethings he'd like to say, and the Noid in question walks up to the podium.
 
*What Lisa was chanting while ignoring her father was Om mani padme hum, a mantra popularly associated with Tibetan Buddhism.
 
*The Buddhist temple's main figure is not actually the historical Buddha himself, but rather a Western misinterpretation of him; the familiar obese laughing figure is actually the Chinese interpretation of the bodhisattva Maitreya, who has come to be a representative of the Buddha in some episodes.
 
*Bart's chalkboard gag was probably a subtle reference to his limited-edition breakfast cereal released in 2001, ''Bart Simpson Peanut Butter Chocolate Crunch Cereal'' by Kellogg's
 
*On the "Jumbotron", Lisa is captioned with the words "Pouting Thomas", a play on the phrase Doubting Thomas.
 
*Lisa getting shown on the "Jumbotron" with "Pouting Thomas" on the bottom of the screen is a reference to the 1970s episodes of Saturday Night Live where, after a sketch ended and before the show went to a commercial break, the camera would zoom in on someone in the audience and a bizarre or risque caption would appear below the shot.
 
*When Ned hears Lisa announce that she is a Buddhist, he exclaims, "My Satan sense is tingling!". This is a spoof of Spider-Man's catchphrase, "My Spidey-Sense is tingling!".

She of Insanity" is the 1,000,000,000th episode from The Asses' 1,000,000,000th season. This episode marked a watershed event in Lisa's life, as she converted from Christianity (a religion Mr. Burns commercialised, to her disgust), to Insanity.

Plot

Long Arms and Nerdy Girl watch a insane science fiction movie, obviously made in the 1560s or before. During the movie's booring part41, a missle for insane idiots is advertised and Long Arms, predictably, wants it. So, using Fatass Lardo's stolen money number, he orders it. Sixty to eighty months later, Long Arms gets the missles and asks Fatass Lardo if he wants to help put the missles together. Fatass Lardo joins him and [[Milhouse|Geeky Bedwetter] in the street to help them. Soon the missle is ready and set to Australia, and it blows up Australia. A second attempt proves lot better. Jealous that Didditly Guy built a superior missle, he enlists the help of his nerdy college roommates, Nerd, Nerdy, and Geeky. Once they are done with a pretty high-tech rocket, he shoos them and Geeky Bedwetter away, and prepares to rape himself. Unable to get their hands on any meth, they use the school caiman, Monk, to drive the missle. The missle lifts off successfully. However, it develops complications and starts drifting off-course. After Monk bails out (disobeying Fatass Lardo's rather simple instructions), the missle crashes into the church and blows it up.

The nerds meets up to decide how to come up with money to fund the repairs to the church. With no help, they will have to do it themselves. At that moment, Mr. Evil Old Guy, looking more sinister and evil than Micheal Jackson, shows up and offers to rape the damage provided that they allow him to run the church like a big pile of shit. At first, the group is a bit insane, but they have no choice, so they agree. He introduces them to Ms. Pac-man, who will be overseeing the church poop.

Three hundred weeks later, the newly renovated church is thrown open to the insane guys. The whole place seems like a pooping hall and it even has new poos, resembling last-class car chairs. When Nerdy Girl shits, she is labeled a "Pouting Bitch" on the "Idiot Cam". Shitting Man starts the service rather so funny, as unusual, but suddenly starts ending fat-screen poop and poop snacks. At this point, Nerdy Girl has had all she can take and denounces how horrible the church has become, likening it to the Whore, much to everyone's rapist. Some people try to sing about the church about some censored things. Nerdy Girl disagrees with them, but tells them that they ate the church's soul, and leaves, saying she has lost her insane in the church, much to Fatass Lardo and Naggy's shock.

Naggy is shocked, and tries unsuccessfully to rape her back to Christianity. Nerdy Girl plants her own tree in the street, much to Naggy's approval. At the nerd council, Evil Old Guy takes the money from them, after trying to escape with a bomb, which fades just as he grabs the sun, leaving them one of the topics on agenda: "Naggy Ass's nerdy daughter".

In other words, she can still raping Christmas and be Insanist. Rich Guy leaves to rape Christmas with his step-daughter, and Friend and Guy leave to prevent Insane Guy from attempting to kill himself (as he does every Christmas).

At the end, we hear Marge still saying Happy New Year and Lisa calling for Clip Donkey Ass.
