2. Why do cockroaches hide under the fridge. |
|
It's big and protective... people stand in awe of it... the small crumbs fall underneath it where the cockroaches can have their way with them...

3. Wasn't it repulsive how folks went on and on about the Pope being here? |
|
I refused to read about it. He is just an old white man who helped shield the child abusers from justice.

6. Well the old boy didn't escape unscathed. |

I was litening to AAR radio, and they played a clip of an abuse survivor. He addressed the Pope. He said, (I'm paraphrasing) 'You have a cancer in your church'.
He said he looked the Pope straight in the face and told him that + more. I thought, "wow, that has got to be the first time in history that has happened".

7. It's not nice to be puckish with the Pope. |
|
He might have got a wisecrack in but wait until he is smoking a turd in purgatory and he has to inhale the smoke.

8. Doubtful he still ascribes to the tenets of the "Church" |
|
Like my Spousal Unit he's probably a "Recovering Catholic".
Since Purgatory is an invention of the Catholic Church, he has no chance of going there either way. Since Hell is pretty much an invention of Christianity (Judaism, not so much) the chances become even slimmer. Since Religion is a way of codifying the world to give it structure and meaning, I'd say he's pretty safe all around.
