Thanks, Pope, I Needed That

As many of my readers know, I’ve been fighting depression for a number of years. It’s gotten somewhat better the last few years, but there are still some mornings, especially, when I feel pretty low and have trouble getting started. That was the case this morning. And then I read the following headline and literally burst out laughing:

"Pope: You don’t have to believe in God to get to heaven."

A good laugh is always the best cure for depression. A man who doesn’t read the Bible certainly has no clue what is in it, and thus should really keep his mouth shut about matters concerning which he knows nothing. If this current pope lives long enough, he’s liable to rival Barack Obama for number of inane things said.
