Thanks, as ever, to Tom!

Part of me doesn't wanna laugh, but I can't help it. Thanks for that Kate.

Pope Josh, huh? Well, we already sort of worship him, don't we? But that would mean celibacy for him. [img]graemlins/uhoh.gif[/img]

That is so funny. Thanks Kate. No offense taken.

God Bless the Pope.

You act as if you were 10. It's not funny. Think before you do something. REspect someone's personal feelings in this sad days.
YOu offended me.

**Jocasta** · 04-05-2005, 10:49 AM

Just what is so sad about these days?

Are the number of HIV deaths higher than last week?
Are more people wrongly imprisoned for their political beliefs than a few days ago?
Are more children being abused than before?
Are more people dying for lack of food or medical care?

I suggest you stop worrying about a bit of fun and get your priorities right.

I hope it's joke. You are not asking me for real what so sad about this days... Obviously you do not know who the Pope was.... And "a bit of fun" considering circumstances is pathetic expression.
Sorry but as for me you are pathetic too.

**Jocasta** · 04-05-2005, 01:55 PM

Don't insult me, especially when you are complaining that I've offended you. Is that what your holy man taught you; to personally attack someone who does not agree with your doctorine?

Turn the other cheek.

Sorry i was not trying to insult you but for catholic people POpe was not a boy next door. It's not the person on whom you can make such things. Maybe it's not great authority for you, I can understand it but he died few days ago. Respect this fact. I'm just protecting his good name. As for me and also for milions people in this world Pope has done many GREAT things thru last 27 years. YOu disrespect him that's why i was offended.

04-05-2005, 03:52 PM

Goodness gracious!! Please!! No disrespect for the blessed Pope was intended. God rest his soul. It was only a bit of levity.

The joke was on Josh, not the Pope.

**Jocasta** · 04-05-2005, 04:47 PM

Thanks Olive, you said it perfectly.

My intention was not to offend anyone, just to bring a moment of light heartedness and maybe make some people smile.

Danny Walker Fan · 04-05-2005, 05:13 PM

I am Catholic, and I could have easily been offended as well. Our leader just died who did a million great things for our church. But like Olive said the joke was on Josh not the Pope.

04-05-2005, 06:06 PM

Ok. Joke was for Josh but Jocasta chose vary bad moment for such a joke.

**Jocasta** · 04-05-2005, 06:11 PM

Jocasta is just reflecting a commonly held attitude. No offence, really. [img]smile.gif[/img]

04-05-2005, 07:02 PM

Sorry Jo but I really didn't get the "joke" but I'm not offended. Just wondered why you picked the pope's outfit w/ Josh's face. [img]graemlins/wacked.gif[/img]

I'm catholic too. I was not offended and I even smiled as well. The Pope was suffering while he was alive. He is in a better place now. I'm so sure his soul is not wondering around earth worrying about jokes. I'm also sure the Pope would want anyone affected by him to continue his good work and not be beating each other up over 1 joke.
