Pope Down!

Dear God,
What happened with your security force yesterday? Someone breached the Pope's entourage and injured a cardinal on Christmas Eve. According to news reports the enthusiast was just "trying to get close to the Pope" and these things happen often. Is this comparable to streaking at a national baseball game?

Do you appreciate this raw enthusiasm? What are your plans for this Pope-enthusiast who broke the rules?

Amazed and confused,

Y2K

Dear God,
Were you behind Y2K? Was that a test? What was that? Assuming it wasn't just a plot to get everyone to stockpile Slim Jims, Y2K was a looming pandemic of technological hysteria that cast a strange worldly gloom. Did you know you ruined a lot of New Years parties? Was it something we did? Was it the exponential rate at which we willingly gave control of our minds to robots? Was it our carbon footprint?

Glad that's water under the bridge,

Seasonal cheer to Michael in Illinois for the referral.

Working in Mysterious Ways

Dear God,
It's been said that you "sometimes work in mysterious ways," but this seems a bit much. Was this something that you didn't detect as the angels in charge of manufacturing dogs slid this under the radar and out the gates? It's very perplexing. Perhaps beyond our comprehension? Does this mean humor has a place in the world?

The real question here is what has this revelation done for the world? Have people been inspired by this sighting? Does your image trump its displayed location?

Still wondering if Jesus was really caucasian and clean shaven,

Many thanks to Steve in Illinois for the sighting.
