Bloody braindead Hoosiers!  Don't you know the Pope isn't supposed to
french-kiss anyone?  If this happened, then his latent homosexual
tendencies mightn't be so latent anymore, perhaps his private parts
might get all engorged and tingly, and then only Ubizmo knows what
would happen!

But seriously, folks, just because the Pope encourages Catholics to
toss common sense to the wind by blathering on senselessly about birth
control and homosexuality doesn't mean he practices what he preaches.
Common sense dictates to him that he shouldn't kiss AIDS patients, so
he doesn't.

(disclaimer: it is unclear that HIV can be transmitted by kissing in
the first place).
