1-900-DIAL-A-POPE

[XMan]

You can't make this stuff up . . .

In 1991 the Vatican approved a Dial-a-Pope 900 service number. (900-568-7733), called "Christian Messaging From the Vatican" with the Vatican receiving 50 percent of the charge for each call to the service.

ill put 1-900-Dial-A-Pope right next to my 1-900-Dial-A-Ho

 

[snakesnfrogs]

for only 29.95, you too can be absolved of all your sins

 

[Belegost]

So I call one 900 number to commit the sin, and another to repent of it? I'm liking this system.

This frightening news leads me to wonder whether any day now His Holiness may appear on late-nite TV commercials saying Call me now for yer free readin'.

 

[ElFenix]

wonder if you could use a box to call, say you're kissinger, and actually talk to the Pope anymore?
