The Pope met with the College of Cardinals to discuss a proposal from Shimon Peres, the former leader of Israel. "Your holiness," said one of the Cardinals, "Mr. Peres wants to determine whether Jews or Catholics are superior, by challenging you to a golf match." The Pope was greatly disturbed, as he had never held a golf club in his life. "Not to worry," said the Cardinal, "we'll call America and talk to Jack Nicklaus. We'll make him a Cardinal, he can play Shimon Peres... We can't lose!" Everyone agreed it was a good idea. The call was made and, of course, Jack was honored and agreed to play. The day after the match, Nicklaus reported to the Vatican to inform the Pope of his success in the match. "I came in second, your Holiness," said Nicklaus. "Second?!!" exclaimed the surprised Pope. "You came in second to Shimon Peres?!!" "No," said Nicklaus, "second to Rabbi Woods."

the cause of the problem.
He said to the Pope, " Your Holiness,' cos U have lived in a
celibate state all your life, your seminal fluids are literally
choking U to death. Therefor, there is only one cure. U must
have sexual intercourse witha woman! "
The Pope crie out in dismay, "But I can't. I can't. U know the
vows Ive taken. I just cannot."
The Doctor replied, " But Your Holiness, if U don't do this U
will condemn yourself to death. This too, is a mortal sin."
The Pope pondered the problem and said, " I'll retire to my room
