My Pope Post

Fear not, it is coming. It's coming (my last comment on the thread will provide a hint of what to expect.)

Meantime, for those who are not snoring, a small game:

Imagine you are an 18th century Pope, or in at least one notorious case, an early 19th century pope. Which doesn't belong and why?

  • Ghettos, with gates that lock at night.
  • Yellow hats
  • Naked Jews forced to debase themselves in foot races and other humiliations to honor Carnivale
  • Jewish children, stolen from their homes in the dead of night
  • An official Vatican newspaper that frequently published "scientific proof" of the Jewish "need" to eat blood at Passover.

  • The answer will be posted tomorrow night.
