Since the Pope pardoned Galileo a while back, do you think he might ever forgive Dr. Science?
———- from Donna Sue of Columbia MO

I doubt if he can find it in him to forgive someone who is not the least bit repentant. Maybe in 400 or 500 years the wolrd will be ready for this uncompromising blend of quasi-fact and whimsy, but as for now, I wouldn’t hold my breath. The last time I visited the Bishop of Rome, the Vatican Guard imprisoned mey in the basement of the St. Peter’s basilica. It was there that I viewed the cryogenically preserved bodies of Walt Disney, Marilyn Monroe and Elvis. See if the Pope forgives me this one! Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa!
