That's what I would have said.

This Pope seems savvy to me.; 8/28/13, 12:51 PM

They sit there a little dumbfounded, not sure if 'this' is really happening. One little old lady from Pasadena is known to have passed out before she received me.

That's what I call myself, anyways, "The Pope"; 8/28/13, 1:12 PM

David said...: “The Pope listened to what I said with much attention,” she said. “He told me that I was not alone and that I must have faith in the justice system.”

Better not try that approach in the United States, Mr. Pope Sir. A lot of people are not going to like it.

Interesting that the Pope did not say to trust in God or that everything happens for a reason. An interesting Pope, you are Mr. Pope Sir.; 8/28/13, 2:05 PM

You'd think he'd be arguing for the higher law, but I guess even he knows it's BS.; 8/29/13, 4:53 AM
