A Poke at the Pope



Thou shalt not transplant pope livers, nor eat them with fava beans and a fine Chianti.- 11th Commandment

-
In strange but true religious news, the Pope, though an advocate for organ transplantation, will not be donating his organs any time soon. The pope's organs belong to the church. All of them? All of them.
-
On the bright side, on your next trip to Italy be sure and have a look at the Pope Pancreas relic collection in the church of Saints Anastasio and Vncent near the Trevi Fountain in Rome.
