Ecological Sin

The Pope has proposed a category of ecological sin

I note that amidst all the dithering nobody seems to have recalled that (according to this tradition) God made the Earth and told humans to take care of it, which makes destroying God's work a very credible sin indeed.  I mean, how can man name the animals if some of them have died out?  They're supposed  to be found and named.  Surely thwarting that is a sin.

It took a not-so minor miracle.. and possibly a deal with the Devil.

"Look Luci, I'll let your guy be the President with no interference, if my guy can be Pope."

"Alright J.C, you're on!" [to himself] "Sucker thinks the pope still has real power nowadays!"

Yup... of course:

(Asks quietly, for reassurance) And who are the cards for Britannia, to truly get a full house and win the entire pot for everyone's sake?

USA makes me want to sit the teenage country down and hope it can mature enough before screwing everything else up.

The not so United Kingdom makes me, Anglophile American Jew with British Jewish ancestry on one side, want to cry watching my grandparents arguing and I had divorced grandparents on both sides. :-(

Sadly there's only jokers and deuces left in that pack... Corbyn I think was the last honest man left in British politics, and look what happened to him.

Still..fear not... Uther Pendragon is still around.
