For Catholics, a Door to Absolution Is Reopened

This has got to go in 'Humor' - how can any religion expect to be taken seriously when it pulls stunts like this? Maybe they can auction them off after bingo to help pay the legal bills from molested alter boy lawsuits. I wonder what the competition thinks of all this?

Indulgences are available at several churches in New York City, where many have never heard of them outside history class.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
