This cartoon reminded me of a scene from the Monty Python film Life of Brian, where some in the crowd mishear and then misinterpret Jesus when he was speaking what we now call the Sermon on the Mount.

I’ve only seen otters in the zoo, where they can be very entertaining. I’m not sure if they actually have a developed theology – except maybe one of enjoying life to its fullest. That probably didn’t need any thought.

These days it seems more like the Golden Rule is “do unto others before they do unto you.” No wonder social cohesion and world peace are so fractured.
