I suppose they call this a belated public admission of having gone
over to the dark side? ;-)

I thought this was already public knowledge well before the turn of
the last millennium?

Why wait a thousand years to get it off their chests that they really
worship the devil's gold?

Hoping for the sympathy vote after the recent collapse in their arms
investments share prices?

I imagine their gold reserves are holding up well despite the massive
child compensation payouts.

But of course there's the nasty drop in property prices..... that's
got to hurt the bottom line.

Sorry, didn't mean to mention bottoms in the same breath as religious
perverts.

What's next? Forgiving those children who have contracted AIDS from
being raped by Catholic priests?

Or will they have the CIA fly the kids to Somalia to be quietly stoned
to death out of sight?

Perhaps the "Holy Father" supplies the HIV positive paedophile priests
with condoms to save the church's dying reputation?

They could always open a global online sales and expert advisory
service for the S&M brigade.

Could be nice little earner flogging genuine defrocked priest's
outfits, whips and chains with explicit instructions based on their
vast experience.

Instructional Blue Ray DVD videos should do well if they get a few of
their evil nuns involved.

They're usually good at showing a bit of discipline (to others).

In business, I think it's always best to stick to what you know,
eh? ;-)

So the religious whackos exonerated Galileo
but have they come to grips with the concept of a round Earth ??
