The cherubs and saints, the loaves and the fishes, the Ascension rollercoaster--all too preconciliar. The new Vatican wouldn't go for that at all. It leans more towards something a little more generic and less Catholic--a few gods and goddesses, perhaps, with a couple of demons thrown in for good measure--the Vatican wouldn't want to exclude devout witchdoctors. Instead of a rollercoaster taking people up to Heaven, it would feature a Tunnel of Love for priests and their boyfriends--going straight in the opposite direction. It would also feature a snack bar where you can chase down the Blessed Sacrament with a cold Budweiser, just like at a papal Youth rally.

Funny, I've never seen anything but water at a Papal Youth Rally.

Even your attempts at humor are biting, humorless stabs at the Pope.

It's no wonder you raddie-traddies have the reputation you do.

Dour, scowling, grumpy, pissed-off frumps in lace and buckle shoes, wagging fingers at anybody who's having the least little bit of fun.
