The Pope

Should he be news?
By Frater Bovious
9th Level Adept, THOOTR

A lot of people have asked me why I haven't written anything about the Pope. Naturally, I thought of the Prince song "The Pope" but recently found out that people are actually referring to The Pope of Vatican fame.

So, I shall write about the Pope.

Later.

Ponderances

"Stark staring incredulity is a far more loyal tribute to that truth than a modernist metaphysic that would make it out merely a matter of degree. It were better to rend our robes with a great cry against blasphemy, like Caiaphas in the judgement, or to lay hold of the man as a maniac possessed of devils like the kinsmen and the crowd, rather than to stand stupidly debating fine shades of pantheism in the presence of so catastrophic a claim. There is more of the wisdom that is one with surprise in any simple person, full of the sensitiveness of simplicity, who should expect the grass to wither and the birds to drop dead out of the air, when a strolling carpenter's apprentice said calmly and almost carelessly, like one looking over his shoulder: 'Before Abraham was, I am.'"
