    Pope Passes New Law Requiring Clergymen to Report Sex Abuse

    Pope: Gentlemen, I've decided to implement new laws

    Bishop Juju: that's racist, you can't call us gentlemen, there could be women here.

    Pope: You mean sexist you silly tit? Racism is where we, I mean people, discriminate on race. This is what I have to deal with. .. we have never accepted women into this sacrosanct.

    Bishops: <murmuring in agreement>

    Pope: the law means you are obliged to report sexual abuse.

    Cardinal G: oh come on, that's not fair

    Bishop X: well my career aspirations have just been destroyed

    Bishop Meek and Mild: I have something to say

    Bishops: <all turning in astonishment, for Meek never speaks>

    Bishop Meek and Mild: How is that different to the eighth commandment?

    Bishop X: you mean thou shalt not.. ..do bad stuff?

    Bishop Meek: Thou shalt not bear false witness

    Bishops: <puzzled looks>

    Bishop Meek: Thou shalt not lie

    Noice, speaking as who was baptised as a lapsed Roman Catholic.

    You can be a lapsed Catholic already when you're baptised?

    It's an Ecclesiastical law I've draft and submitted to El Papa for implementation by the next Vatican council. A preemptive approach.

    I can't say I have faith as such but believe in the good in people, and agree with you.

    The last time I was in church I pinched the wine and later in the confession box I puked when asked what I thought about my stealing.
