POPE Benedict, who recently fell and broke his wrist, says his “guardian angel” let him down. The Pope believes that his angel was clearly acting “on superior orders.”
Benedict was vacationing at Les Combes, an Alpine resort, when he tripped and injured his wrist a few days ago. “Perhaps the Lord wanted to teach me more patience and humility, give me more time for prayer and meditation,” the pope explained.
I beg to differ from the infallible one and say the Lord had nothing to with Benedict’s f all. I would wager it was gravity, speed, momentum, age, and balance (or rather the lack thereof) that caused him to take a tumble. His holiness is evidently not above the laws of Physics.
