Father, I'm with child. Girl, who fathered this baby? Why, Priest, it is you ~ Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway? ~ |

The comedian Dennis Miller was doing a routine one evening on the TV and one of his jokes was. "I decided to go to confession today. Went into the booth and the priest said to me, 'son would you like to confess your sins?' I thought about that for a minute and then said, you go first!!" Like a subject like this Jerry. Eric |

Good morning, Eric, thanks. Dennis Miller is one of my favorite comedians, the huge majority of the others are just trash-tasking haters. ~ Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway? ~ |

It's just a senryu and yet it has the power to impact the reader's mind as if it was a long story ... and indeed it IS a long story! Indifference is impossible. If only the priests could get married, that would already change something and this category would represent a lower risk factor for young girls and boys. Love, Margherita |

Ah, Margherita, I agree with you. To be "married" to the body of Christ, or the Church, and to go without sexual release is just b.s. Now, after saying that I feel the molestation of young boys would not be curtailed. There needs to be a better screening of priests. But the way things are, perverts are in charge and keep hiding these criminal priests around different parishes until finally, they are caught up in their own lies. Then again, some of them are never made to pay for their crimes. The church just pays off the parents. Sick. ~ Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway? ~ |
