Under: Humour
So the Holy Father is on a pastoral visitation to the Holy Land. The first day he's at the Wailing Wall, kneeling. A child asks him what he's doing. "I'm praying for peace between the Jews and the Arabs". "And who are you talking to?" asked the child. "To God the Father" replied the Pope.
The next day the Pope is back at the Wailing Wall again. "What are you doing?" asks another child. "I'm praying for peace in Sudan". "And who are you talking to?" asked the child. "To God the Son" replied the Holy Father.
The next day the Pope is back once more at the Wall. "What are you doing?" asks yet another child. "I'm praying for peace in Sri Lanka". "And who are you talking to?" asked the child. "To God the Holy Spirit" replied His Holiness.
The final day of the visit, the Pope is again at the Wailing Wall. "What are you doing?" asks an old man. "I'm praying for a resolution to the Cork hurling dispute". "And who are you talking to?" asked the old man. "To the Wall" said the Pope.
