Latest news: Pope Catholic, Troll Continues Trolling
The Pope is trolling?!? I have heard he Tweets. Now this!
Hah! No, the Pope is not trolling. This was just
the Latest News, the Pope is Catholic. Amazing, eh? Who woulda thunk it?
And an unnamed troll continues trolling. My
apologies to the Holy Father for mentioning his
position in apposition to a troll.
I guess it is an effort to bring the Church into
the Modern Era and appeal to Youth. He is
keeping up with the latest technology, like
Cardinal Don Fernando Niño de Guevara, the Grand
Inquisitor, wearing glasses in 1600:

This was like posing with a laptop. In his case,
it would display a list of naughty and nice
people. People who never expected the Spanish Inquisition!

I was astounded to see that painting, I thought
perhaps it had been hacked. But it appears to not
be an anachronism, though the glasses certainly look modern. Live and learn.
I will excuse my offense to the Pope by hastily
adopting Jed's helpful gloss, that the headline
was about Naught and Nice, but in reverse order.
