Ah, Bob. A bit of desperate, soul-deadening wit to start the new weekend. Thanks!

Latest silly thought going through my mind: the pope controlling the Catholic Church is a little like a centrally-planned economy. It's just a centrally-planned morality. I wonder if you could find similarities between Soviet abuses and shortages, and questionable moral calls on small local issues. In either case, the central planning authority would be producing inefficiency by not being able to handle the full load with the ability of free market pressures. Dunno. Does morality establish itself in anything resembling a free market way?

Oh. So having a pope is like having centrally-dictated gravity?
