The content to be unveiled is the sheer responsibility of the writer, who happens to be a confirmed agnost. It is meant only for humor-mongers who can embrace it with the right pinch of sarcasm!
Well that's that!
Treading into the Holy See's business can be a pretty tight plot. But guess besides me, there are others on the loose who love to take a dig, time and time again!
March 13th,2013, the Catholic world chose its newest Pope. Besides the fact that he was the Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Jorge Mario Bergoglio (pronounced as Ber-GOAL-io), is also the first non-European cardinal, of a Jesuit order to lead the Papacy in more than 1200 years.
Fancy, eh?
The Church never gets tired of coming up with interesting drama. Old habits die hard, after all! Schisms, abdication, 'carnal' scandals, politics and corruption, the Church never falls short of its age-old afflictions for a power game; the rules of which it manipulates on its own.
Following the abdication of the last Pope, the Twitteratti has been seriously going gung-ho about this Pope business. First it was the abdication jokes and now the latest election. There's never enough to be said for the 140-kinders!
This collection of the best tweets that we stumbed across on Twitter are sarcastic and humorous to the core. It's great how the most important event in Roman Catholic community is being taken in a off-handedly lighter note.
With the Pope being a member of the Twitter community, himself, more's the fun.
All I can say is "Holy Smokes! Welcome your kind Holiness."
