papal murder
Posted Tuesday, May 5, 1998, at 10:46 AM ETKatha,
Well, you have to hand it to the Vatican. We do murders well. And the uniforms could have been designed by Michelangelo. Actually, come to think of it, they were designed by Michelangelo, the Versace of his time. Anyway, it's good to know that disgruntlement is not entirely restricted to the U.S. Postal Service. I have to say, though, that only allowing members of the Swiss aristocracy to defend the Holy Father seems to me an unconscionable form of affirmative action. But, then, I suppose, what else is an all-male priesthood, except affirmative action? Women, I think, would do an often far better job.
faithfully yours,
Andrew
