The Pope wants us to be more humorous so here goes:
The Pope, a minister and a rabbit walk into a bar. The bartender asks the rabbit what’s up. The rabbit responds: Search me. I’m here only because of spell check.
Put your contributions in the comboxes.
After Mass an altar boy asked the Holy Father; “Do you know what vitamin to take to be a Catholic in good standing? No..replied the Pope. “B-1,” said the altar boy as he placed his hands together.
The Pope asks us to not water down the significance of the Eurchrist.
That was in a statement he gave on Wednesday this week.
Not long ago the Vatican issued a statement saying that pro-abortion politicians should not have the Eurchrist denied them.
Well.
Which is it?

Not funny.
If you don’t want the faithful to water down the Eurchrist then put and end to Catholic politicians who refuse to recant their support for abortion.
Lead the faithful…
Lead.
Amen, Philip.
And in other news, we see that the ever astute politician given the See of Chicago by this pope, one Blase Cupich, ducked out of administering Holy Communion at the funeral Mass of murdered Chicago Police Officer Ella French just in time to set up the CPD Chaplain, Father Dan Brandt, to face Chicago Mayor Lightfoot, a lesbian Protestant, presenting herself for the Eucharist. Father Brandt thus took the fall for what Cupich no doubt planned to permit all along. Some shepherd. May God have mercy on us all.

I’m all about obedience to papal authority, but if there’s any situation that can benefit from the dispersed authority of the Church, it’s the prudent assessment of a politician’s responsibility within the variety of political systems. Rome can’t be expected to standardize rules for how much burden an American or Armenian circuit court judge bears in a particular ruling. The local shepherd has to be able to make the close calls.
Great rabbit joke. I didn’t see it coming.
@ Frank.
Our Lady, the Immaculate Heart of Mary, intercede for us.
This is our time. At times it’s hard to believe that the Church has ever been in such a disarray…but history proves otherwise.
It’s just our times and our prayers.
Peace Frank.
I thought Benedict was under house arrest
