What A Costly Mistake?



When the Pope got to heaven, he was naturally received by a high power reception committee. And after a whirlwind tour, he was told that he could enjoy any of the myriad of recreations available. He decided that he would rather read all of the ancient original texts of the Holy Scriptures. So he spent time learning languages. And after becoming a linguistic master, he sat down in the library and began to pour over every version of the Bible, working back from most recent "Easy Reading" to the original scripts.

All of a sudden there was a heat rendering scream in the library. The Angels came running in, only to find the Pope huddled in his chair, crying and muttering to himself, "An 'R'! The scribes left out the 'R'." A particularly concerned Angel took him aside, offered a soothing comfort, and asked what the problem was. After collecting his wits, the Pope sobs again and said, "It's the letter 'R'. They left out the 'R'. The word was supposed to be CELEBRATE!"
