there was a pope who was loved by all men, and when he died and went to heaven saint peter met him with a warm embrace
'welcome your holiness, we are honored to have you here. your dedication in serving your fellow man has earned you great respect here, and for this we grant you free access to all parts of heaven. you may go anywhere and speak to anyone. now, is there anything which your holiness desires?'
'well, yes,' the pope replied. 'I have spent many years trying to work out the mysteries of the universe. I have spent hours pondering questions that have confounded philosophers through the ages. I would dearly love to read any transcripts which recorded the actual conversations between god and the prophets of old. I would love to see what was actually said, first hand.'
saint peter immediately ushered the pope to heavenly library. the pope sat down and began to read the true history of the earth.
some time later a scream of heart chilling anguish rang out from the bookshelves of the library. Angels came running. There they found the pope, with a look of complete horror on his face, pointed to a single word on an old parchment, saying, ‘there’s an “R”- its “celibrate!”’
