OK, if I served on a jury that tried a pope, I would vote not guilty.

So if the Pope was molesting children, that would be OK with you?

Gee, there is no anti-Catholic bigotry among the full moon over the border set, is there? If you tell me you are Catholic, many people do hate their own. Do you tell your supervisors that you have such fantasies? First, you suggest the pope sneaking into America illegally and now to molest children.

The answer to this new silly hypothetical question with no factual basis (which would be excluded by any court) is: yes, I would still vote not guilty, since, at least as to JP II or any other pope in my lifetime, I would not only NOT be convinced beyond a reasonable doubt of his guilt, but I would be convinced beyond ANY doubt as to his innocence. Exclude me from the jury but, if I am on it, first things first and no one, even if unofficial militia is guilty unless beyond a reasonable doubt.

I am still waiting, unless I missed it, for your answer to my previous question as to how many moments it would take Dubya to see to it that any request for US citizenship by JPII be granted summarily. He would do the same for the Dalai Lama.
