Q said it!

It's going to be a bad month of May for the Pope.

I like Q

While I disagree with most of the Pop's social pronouncements I really like that he's trying to do away with all the expensive trappings and pomp of his position. Living in an apartment in the Vatican hotel and eating in the common dining room is great.

Trump for Pope!

Doesn't "Pope" mean father? Didn't Jesus say to call no earthly person "father"? How could a person claim to be head of a 'universal' Christian church yet use a term excluded by the focal character of that religion?
