to the pope-mobile!

i'm not quite sure what inspired the vatican to come up with these, but it recently released a document with the 'drivers' ten commandments' - yes, you read that right, the 'driver's ten commandments'...

this should be good...


1. you shall not kill.
2. the road shall be for you a means of communion between people and not of mortal harm.
3. courtesy, uprightness and prudence will help you deal with unforeseen events.
4. be charitable and help your neighbor in need, especially victims of accidents.
5. cars shall not be for you an expression of power and domination, and an occasion of sin.
6. charitably convince the young and not so young not to drive when they are not in a fitting condition to do so.
7. support the families of accident victims.
8. bring guilty motorists and their victims together, at the appropriate time, so that they can undergo the liberating experience of forgiveness.
9. on the road, protect the more vulnerable party.
10. feel responsible toward others.

further explaining the fact that the first (and last) time the pope visited boston was in 1979...

This is also proof that you're not a catholic.

Then again, I think the entire thing is nuts, so maybe I'm not a very good one...
