Hmmmm. The Vatican is a tad bit hipacritical.
A high up Cardinal today criticized the USA for planning to build a fence along the southern border to help stop illegal immigration as immoral, inhumane, and against God's laws. Funny thing is, he made this declaration from BEHIND THE VATICAN'S WALLS!
Good help is hard to find, I guess. Even GOD is hiring idiots these days.
Hope this stooge is getting minimum wage.

So, since the Catholic Church is reduced to hippocracy and idiocy, I thought a fun song to mock the hell ( no pun intended) out them was in order.

Lyrics by Tom Lehrer:
First you get down on your knees,
Fiddle with your rosaries,
Bow your head with great respect,
And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect!

Do whatever steps you want, if
You have cleared them with the Pontiff.
Everybody say his own
Kyrie eleison,
Doin' the Vatican Rag.

Get in line in that processional,
Step into that small confessional,
There, the guy who's got religion'll
Tell you if your sin's original.
If it is, try playin' it safer,
Drink the wine and chew the wafer,
Two, four, six, eight,
Time to transubstantiate!

So get down upon your knees,
Fiddle with your rosaries,
Bow your head with great respect,
And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect!

Make a cross on your abdomen,
When in Rome do like a Roman,
Ave Maria,
Gee it's good to see ya,
Gettin' ecstatic an'
Sorta dramatic an'
Doin' the Vatican Rag!

Tom is a genius -- Lehrer that is!

Play me "The Element Song" or "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" any day instead of Britney, etc.
