Satire verboten: Pope vs German magazine

Skybird · 07-11-12, 06:49 AM

The magazine's staff said that it is all a misunderstanding. Indeed they meant to show how the Pope was enjoying and celebrated something (forgot what they said it was), and that he only spilled some orange lemonade during that, which can be seen on the picture. They plan to form a delegation that will go to Rome and they look forward to discuss the matter in the spirit of friendship with a highranking Vatican delegation and the pope himself. Somebody also said they would welcome Italian and German politicians to join the Vatican-Titanic-summit.
