questions for the late pope

dear pope john paul,

please disregard the fact that you are dead. please also understand that i am writing to you because i am still feeling a little bit uneasy about pope benedict's ties to nazi germany, although everyone makes a point of stressing the fact that he was unenthusiastic about the whole affair. anyway, i am more comfortable talking to you.

well, i got to thinking the other day about the catholic position on birth control and i know you have a very clear, zero-tolerance position on contraception, but so what i was wondering was whether or not it would be alright to poke holes in condoms and then use them? because that would make them totally ineffective and then you aren't engaging in any form of birth control. do you see where i'm going with this?

oh and i was also curious who transsexual people can and can't marry. can they marry either sex? neither? or only other transsexual people?

so i guess you probably won't get back to me for a little while, but i just wanted to thank you in advance for taking the time to answer my questions. or if it is god who is answering through you or whatever, thank him too. he seems like a good guy.

sincerely,

n
