Bush/Pope Meet in Vatican, Condemn Things

:sarcasm:

It was a lively discussion between Bush and Benedict, who has at times been critical of the President’s foreign policy decisions, particularly the War in Iraq and the military’s alleged use of torture on detainees and prisoners of war. After the two discussed their differences, however, the leaders quickly bonded as they rapidly pieced together a list of things, actions and beliefs that they agreed should be condemned.

..................

“Life begins at conception, what if Jesus was aborted, look at this mangled fetus billboard and vomit in your car, Leviticus 18:22, ‘exit only’ — it was all pretty standard stuff,” said a Vatican Cardinal, on condition on anonymity. “Then all of a sudden, something just clicked, and they started rattling off things they felt morally superior than left and right. It was really a beautiful thing to watch.”

The list, which filled two full parchment scrolls by the time it was completed, was a mix of old and new doctrine. In addition to admonishing pre-marital sex (anal not included at the Presbyterian President’s behest), coveting one’s neighbor’s wife, stems cell research, goat thievery and Islam, new additions to be scorned included Broadway musicals, Al Gore, iPod shuffle playlists, apple cinnamon flavored oatmeal, adult education courses and the Fourth Amendment.

“We got along real swell, Benny and I,” the President told reporters assembled outside the Pope’s quarters. “I like the way he thinks, he’s a real forward looker. We both agreed on many important issues that are troubling us both. It was a pleasant surprise to learn that his Eminence was just as horrified as I was when he learned that there are some people out there that are advocating we look for alternative sources of energy. As he said, if it was good enough to light Jesus’ lamp, far be it from us to try and ‘do better’ than that.”

1. As I said in an earlier post.....

Mr Pope sure doesnt seem to have a problem wining and dining with a war criminal and treating him like an old friend, or someone who deserves respect.

2. I would assume that a pair of Nazis in every way but name would get along

fine. I wonder if "Benny" called him "Georgie Porgie".

3. i think the story is satire......

here is an exerpt:

Among other things that Bush and Benedict XVI passed judgment on, the leak list included marble cake, volunteering for Meals on Wheels, the study of Astronomy, mild buffalo wings, being a class mother and keeping private the results of pap smear tests.
