Bob: So what's new with the girls, Joe? Joe: *heh* Danae applied to The Vatican to become the next pope! Bob: *heh*heh* Well, they could do worse, I suppose. Wait... no... now that I think about it... Joe: Seriously, how many of those have you had, Bob?

I haven’t had any yet and I’ll still vet Danae for pope! Mmmmm, maybe I should have that cocktail, now.

How could you take him seriously with an umbrella drink in front of him?

It would be very interesting if he had portrayed another religion in this series. He should try it and see what happens.

In one of the nearly infinite alternate realities, Danae IS the Pope, and I haven’t spent so much time reading and contributing to this site and ….Listen, there’s a hell of good universe next door — let’s go! (per e e cummings).

Oh, I’m here. As the rest of my group. And already we’ve taken a dislike to these 23 80 proof comments being posted!

I think he should mock Islam, The Religion of Peace, and see how many death threats he gets. Ah, but anti-Catholic bigotry is so much more acceptable. You can always stick a crucifix in a jar of urine and call it art.

Uhm, Josh, she may have been hitting on you. If you don’t drink, then say, “How about coffee instead”. Or you could just climb on your high horse and act like a jerk. Your call.

An entertaining book about alternate universes is Michael Crichton’s TIMELINE. His premise is that travel in time is not possible, but travel in place to nearby alternatives is..All this is just speculation — unless you yourself have passed through the “quantum foam.” It wouldn’t surprise me. Just kidding, and yet there’s something …

I’m surprised Bob isn’t promoting Pope Oprah. .As for myself, I’m supporting Pope Ye the First.

Don’t tell me he wants Oprah for the Pope.

“…Who else has a pope?..” Prophet is the highest office in the Melchizedek Priesthood. Apostles are higher than Bishops, since they ordain Bishops. There were no Apostles for over a hundred years when the Bishop of Rome made his political move. He decided to be higher than all the other Bishops in the world and declared he would be called Pope. There is a Prophet, holding the Melchizedek Priesthood, in Utah. He has a direct line of authority back to Peter and Christ.

I, for one, would like to see the white smoke for Danae.

Bob, like many uncles forgets how terrible his nieces/nephews truely are ( unless reminded by the parent ). Since he doesn’t have to deal with the little darlings, on a daily basis, he can be blissfully ignorant.But, I suspect that Uncle Bob, Mai Tai haze aside, knows what Danae is really like.

I recall an Indo-Chinese religion had a pope, but don’t remember the name. It was occasionally in the news back when we were trying to capture that part of the French Empire for our own.

I am a recovering Roman Catholic and NOT a member of the LDS, but what makes you think that you are SOOO right about “the Utah organization”?They may be spot on and you would be wrong. Don’t worry about it, they have certainly baptized many of you ancestors and probably even you, so they do not hold a grudge.Seriously, unless you have your own church and do not want your followers giving money to other churches, you could be a little more open minded. The only thing that I am certain of, is that when we meet our Heavenly Father, things will be much different than any of us can imagine – as humans, we do not even have the capacity to understand.

“…which heresy was taught throughout the “Latin West” for over a Century thereafter…” There was this meeting in Nicaea about 325 AD. The Roman Emperor Constantine invited 1,800 Bishops of Christianity. Only 20% of the Bishops came. The Council voted on what to believe about Jesus, etc. The minority was declared to be Heretics and Excommunicated by the majority. The Emperor Exiled the Heritics from the Roman Empire. And a proclamation was made: anyone that read the writing of those who were exiled were to be Executed.
So the Emperor and the Council began the process of telling the 1,400 other congregations what they were supposed to believe and who their new leaders were.

I remember Dana Andrews, and “Tarantula” was one of the scariest of the genre. Of course, I was only about 10 or 12 at the time.
