The only true religion
One day God called the Pope, and he said “John Paul I have good news and bad news. First the good news. I am tired of all the squabbling between the religions. I have decided there will be only the one true religion”. The Pope was overjoyed and told God how wise his decision was, then asked “What’s the bad news?”. God said the bad news is that I am calling from Salt Lake City.
