Staying away from heirarchs sounds like very wise counsel!

Absolutely! You don't want to get hit by the backsplash from a well-aimed lightning bolt!

The comment about the paving in Hell has been variously attributed to St. John Chrysostom, St. John of the Cross, St. Athanasius, and St. Jerome. Of course, they would all be right. Except for this guy:

"“I don’t think they will handle ‘Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof’ very well at all.”"

Judging from the size of the brain contained therein, his skull isn't large enough to use for paving - maybe for kitty litter . . .

. . . oh, darn, now I'm going to have to go to confession on Saturday . . .

My great grandmother would be very happy (and a bit surprised) that an "Americaneetha" (American woman) Roman Catholic would say that!

Nah, the Theotokos is chuckling; don't worry! :)

The truth is a complete defense.
