I just don't get itPoor Semiret, he's foreign and has no idea if he "should laugh about the whole 'only playing music when they are out of ice cream' thing or not." There's also a Far Side cartoon that has had him stumped for almost 20 years.
What don't you understand? What have you politely gone along with whilst internally going WTF?

People's complete adoration of the late popeI mean, he (and his council) forbade the use of contraception in the 3rd world countries that needed it most, such as Africa; saying that condoms did nothing to stop the spread of AIDS.
How many hundreds of thousands people would still be alive in thirty years if he instead said the scientifically proven and humanitarian thing. Missionaries actually teach people over there that contraception does nothing to stop AIDS.
Surely he had some form of responsibility to those millions of poor people who lived by his word. Or was he just misguided in this matter? :(
