Giving It Up For Lent

So here we are in the third week or so of Lent, and Lent being that particular holy time when Christians are supposed to be reflecting on or taking stock of their religious lives.  Lent believers usually give up something they enjoy during this time as a sacrifice to release themselves from worldly pleasures and get nearer to God, or some such nonsense.  The leader of millions of Catholics across the globe has observed Lent by giving up his job.  I suggest to whomever in the Catholic Church still has free will and a clear mind, for Lent, give up the Catholic Church. 

Now that there's no Pope, here's a list of things you Catholics can now legally do:  (1) Wear a condom. (2) Masturbate.  (3) Stop giving money to the most wealthy church in the world. (4) Eat meat on Fridays, and Ash Wednesday. (5) Stop feeling sad and grave during High Mass. (6 ) Be gay. (7) Marry anyone you want.  (8) Get divorced. (9) Give up on the AntiChrist, he ain't comin'. (10)  Stop thinking Father Casey just wants to check the tags in your underwear.
