The Pope met with his Cardinals to discuss a proposal from Benjamin
Netanyahu, the leader of Israel.
"Your Holiness ", said one of his Cardinals, "Mr. Netanyahu wants to
challenge you to a game of golf to show the friendship and ecumenical
spirit shared by the Jewish and Catholic faiths. "
The Pope thought this was a good idea, but he had never held a golf club
in his hand. "Don't we have a Cardinal to represent me? " he asked.
"None that plays very well, " a Cardinal replied. "But," he added,
"There is a man named Jack Nicklaus, an American golfer who is a devout
Catholic. We can offer to make him a Cardinal, and then ask him to
play Mr. Netanyahu as your personal representative. In addition to showing our
spirit of cooperation, we'll also win the match. "
Everyone agreed it was a good idea, and the call was made. Of course,
Nicklaus was honored to be made a Cardinal, and agreed to play. |
