A random schmuck mouthing off about the state of the world.
Talk about burying the needle on the irony meter. MSRNC’s website has the following headline about the Pope’s address to Catholic youths:
Pope to Youth: Truth, not drugs
My first thought upon reading that was to recall Karl Marx’s famous (though somewhat disingenuously elided) quote:
Religion is the opium of the people.
I couldn’t stop laughing at the unintentional(?) irony.
