A LONG TIME COMING



There was a Pope who was greatly loved by all of his followers, a man who led with
gentleness, faith and wisdom. His passing was grieved by the entire world, Catholic
or not.

As the Pope approached the gates of heaven, it was Saint Peter who greeted him in a
firm embrace. "Welcome, your holiness, your dedication and unselfishness in serving
your fellow man during your life has earned you great stature in heaven. You may
pass through the gates without delay and are granted free access to all parts of
heaven. You are also granted an open door policy and may at your own discretion
meet with any heavenly leader, including the Father without prior appointment. Is
there anything which your holiness desires?"

"Well, yes," the Pope replied. "I have often pondered some of the mysteries which
have puzzled and confounded theologians through the ages. Are there perhaps any
transcripts which recorded the actual conversations between God and the prophets
of old? I would love to see what was actually said, with-out the dimming of memories
over time."

Saint Peter immediately ushered the Pope to the heavenly library and explained how
to retrieve the various documents. The Pope was thrilled and settled down to review
the history of man's relationship with God.

Two years later a scream of anguish pierced the stacks of the library.

Immediately several of the Saints and Angels came running. There they found the
Pope pointing to a single word on a parchment, repeating over and over...

"There's an 'R'!!!, there IS an 'R'!!! -- the word is celibRate!"
