Man, we are pretty jealous of the person who got to write the headline for the AP article on the big Pope Francis and His Cardinals Jamboree this week, because they somehow slipped "Pope Opens Big Week With Sex, Divorce On Agenda" past their editors. Believe the hype of the headline, though, because our current fave pope, New Pope, is taking on the many many third rails of the Catholic Church, most of which involve whom you have sex with and when.
Should we respond with a gesture of thanks? Perhaps have IM Pei design the next Abortionplex in the style of a cathedral? Maybe install a chapel and kneelers in the current one? The kneelers would work well in the sauna, I think!
On the Catholic League site he&#039;s playing it cool (from November 27):<i>
Catholic League members will like the pope&rsquo;s criticisms of our &ldquo;media culture and some intellectual circles.&rdquo; These segments of the population would like activist Catholics to muzzle themselves, keeping their hands off the normative order. But when Catholics bend to these militant secularists, they lose. &ldquo;They end up stifling the joy of mission with a kind of obsession about being like everyone else and possessing what everyone else possesses.&rdquo;
Pope Francis is neither liberal nor conservative. He&rsquo;s simply Catholic, and a towering champion of its many causes.</i>
The Pope&#039;s getting all <i>sensus fidei</i> on us, I see. Could be interesting: last time that happened, we got the Immaculate Conception becoming official Catholic dogma.
Easter, 2014. I&#039;ve heard that the RCC is a fan of symbolism and allegory.
I prefer Opus the Penguin, much more fun at a party or a weed infused wedding
We&#039;re just as likely to see another Inquisition. Betcha didn&#039;t expect that!
Kasper, the Holy Ghost.
&#039;Thorniest issues&#039; or &#039;horniest issues&#039;?

Then it gets hilarious!

Why did they send the questionnaire for ordinary Catholics to the bishops? I doubt if the bishops even know any ordinary Catholics.
Great picture. I love all of Eddy Murphy&#039;s early, funny work.
Wake me for the Vatican XIV rerun. The Stillers are God&#039;s team.
This will prove once and for all that the Church is infallible, before and after it changes its mind.
My favorite will always be the one with the Clydesdale and the alter boy...
Oh oh. They&#039;re going to have to get Old Pope Benny off the ceiling with tranquilizing darts.

Shouldn&#039;t there still be another six?
