Religion impels people to do some weird stuff, sometimes.

Oh, well. To each his own.

I agree and while I can almost understand wanting to keep the glass (if you hadn’t actually stolen it), drinking from it - I don’t know.

Idiots like this give Democrats a bad rep.

That’s funny. I just read a story where the Pope snuck off with and drank from a glass that Chuck Norris had left behind.

Ah yes…the all-important talisman for the superstitious Congresscritter.
Who knows, maybe he actually plans on selling it on Craigslist.

He can sell it (along with a certificate of authenticity) on eBay and make a few bucks. It’s the American way…

…it’s blessed if you throw some of the water over your left shoulder, turn 3 times and sing JesusLovesMe in 4 part harmony.

Someone should make sure that guy isn’t loitering around the Pope’s bathroom.

“When the Holy See finished the speech and left the lectern, Brady calmly
swiped the glass and headed back to his office, where his wife, Debra, a
friend, and a staffer each drank from the glass., the Daily News first
reported. The group also snapped pictures to mark the occasion.”

Good grief! Pope Francis is not “the Holy See”. He is the Bishop of Rome and the Head of State of the Vatican.

Yes. I was glad to see your post. Saved me writing one.
Accurate information matters!

Someone please tell the Brady bunch that holiness is not transferable. Or, in other words, ewww.

Can we be sure he didn’t use it to pee in, like that candidate across the pond?

…then shalt thou take three sips, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt sip, and the number of the sipping shall be three. Four shalt thou not sip, neither sip thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out.
