The Pope is Listed as Questionable For Sunday
Time for OTP’s periodic examination into religious issues. Okay, there really is not a regular feature on religion, but it sounded like a good intro.
The population of christian wackos in Florida now has decreased significantly with the passing of Terry Schiavo. Just a sad story all around. I hope for Michael Schiavo’s case that an autopsy reveals that she truly was in a persistent vegetative state, otherwise these christian wackos are going to kill him, which of course would become the Most Ironic Story of the Year.
No one would want to live in a persistent vegetative state (although the Shrub somehow has found a way to do it) so one could understand Michael’s Schiavo’s point of view. However, it’s difficult to fault the Schindlers for wanting to do everything possible to maintain hope about their daughter. Anyone with children could relate.
I'll say it again, if Terry Schiavo were black, latin, or any other minority, the christian wackos certainly would not have gotten all lathered up about the situation.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to become an estate-planning attorney.
The Vatican keeps releasing breaking news bulletins about the Pope's condition. First, they said he was in grave condition. Then, they said his condition has worsened. Okay, we get it already, he's not feeling so hot.
Sometimes I get the sense that this Pope death watch is akin to a Mafia boss dying, with all sorts of people plotting and scheming behind the scenes in attempt to become the next pontiff. If I'm one of those vying for the position, I'm watching my back and hiring a food tester.

im just glad that i dont have to hear about it anymore. it has been the topic of conversation everywhere i go lately. of course i belong to a family of christian wackos, so that probably explains most of it. hopefully the pope will die off soon too. and then we can get another really old guy thats 5 years from his death bed to replace him. but with modern medacine and regular drinks from the cup of life, he will probably live to the ripe old age of 102.
