Pope Bows Before Muslim Queen
[Pope Bows
Before Muslim Queen Proclaiming the
Gospel Ministries
]
"Pope Francis bowed before Queen
Rania of Jordan, who was visiting
with her husband, King Abdullah II,
breaking the protocol that requires
visitors to bow to him. Up until the
19th century visitors would kiss the
pope's shoes, and the tradition is
still that all visitors, women
included, bow to him, but Francis
behaves as he did before he became
pope and is not interested in
protocol. Francis apparently did not
bow toward her husband, the king. A
few months ago, he caused a ripple
through the Catholic faithful by
washing the feet of a woman - a
Serbian Muslim inmate at a prison in
Rome - a day before Good Friday.

swimmer in distress cries, 'I shall
drown; no one will save me!' " But a
suicide says, "I will drown; no one
shall save me!" And I say, "You two
(pedantic) know-it-alls deserve to
drown." I mean, what about "Help!"

Response to comment [from a "Christian"]: [Bybee uses the word 'whilst' (uncommon in our culture) after I do] "Perhaps it is best to toss diplomacy, courtesy and magnanimity to the dogs? Let's just tear into each other over every petty difference whilst completely ignoring the very big issues? Let the Pettifoggers Rule! After all, all you all have done such a wonderful job so far!"
Imitation is the sincerest form of
flattery.
