JenP, thanks for enjoying my catty gum remark. The posters on a board I used to hang out in did not so much. They took my irreverence for disrespect.

What date was the comic?

ETA: saw punchline, couldn't find alt text.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I was listening to BBC last night and my understanding of the Holocaust denier bishop fiasco is that there was a group of bishops who were ordained (?) without the blessing of the pope, and so they were excommunicated..
This pope is trying to bring all the-I don't know what you call them- renegade sects? back into the fold. So, he wholesale welcomed this particular group back without knowing the holocaust denier's beliefs.

You put your mouse over the comic and get a box with more text. The text today is about the inauguration, but I don't get the connection with being a woman either.

I figure the pope is being more concerned with managing Catholics than worrying about what the rest of the world is thinking.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

He had to have known. My officemate, when he heard that the people from this particular group were bring brought back in, responded with, "Oh, that crazy Holocaust-denial guy is going to get in the news with this one." If random American Catholic knows, then the Pope knows.

His point is that he would have effed up giving the oath even worse than Roberts did.

Right because none of this will offend any Catholics. (JZ's eyes shoot deathrays at me for that one.)

I went to a medical office, got what I needed without problem , and the people I encountered were polite and helpful.
In my world, seeing the positive is the new black.
