Pope Proposes Transportation Tax to Pave Religious Pathways

Who Needs a Narrow Gate When You Can Have a Four-Lane Highway to Hell Heaven?




In a surprising twist following his recent statement that "all religions are paths to God," Pope Francis has suggested a new initiative: paving these spiritual pathways into wide roads. The pontiff, known for his progressive views, proposed a "Transportation Tax" to fund the project, aiming to make these celestial routes more accessible and less congested.


"Why walk when you can drive?" quipped the Pope during an interfaith meeting in Singapore. "If all religions are paths, let's make them highways!"


The proposal has sparked both amusement and bewilderment among religious leaders worldwide. Some have embraced the idea, envisioning toll booths manned by monks and nuns, while others worry about the environmental impact of paving paradise.


Critics argue that the Pope's plan is a slippery slope, potentially leading to traffic jams in the afterlife. "We don't need road rage on the way to salvation," commented one concerned bishop. Others have noted the irony in the call to widen these roads, given Jesus' warning, that "...broad is the way that leads to destruction."


Despite the controversy, the Vatican is reportedly in talks with major construction firms and GPS companies to ensure smooth navigation across religious terrains. As one cardinal put it, "We're not just building roads; we're building bridges between faiths—literally!"

Pastor Jane's Inappropriate Relationships Spark Cheers of 'Yaaaaasss Queen' Amidst Ecclesiastical Double Standards

Breaking the Stained-Glass Ceiling: Pastor Jane's Scandalous Path to Feminist Icon Status In a groundbreaking moment for ecclesiastical equality, Pastor Jane Doe has become a beacon of feminist empowerment after being caught in a series of inappropriate relationships with male congregants. Her actions have sparked a wave of support, with many hailing her as a "Yaaaaasss Queen" for shattering the stained-glass ceiling.

Once Judeo-Christian Nation Watches Debate To Determine Which Immoral Reprobate Best Qualified to Lead

Nation’s Moral Compass Goes Haywire, Formally Resigns Following Debate Philadelphia - In a spectacle that could only be described as a divine comedy, the nation once hailed as a "Judeo-Christian" nation gathered to watch the presidential debate, eager to determine which immoral reprobate would best lead them forward. The candidates, both seasoned in the art of moral ambiguity, took the stage with the confidence of televangelists at a Sunday sermon.   As the candidates took the stage, the audience was treated to a spectacle reminiscent of a reality show, complete with mudslinging and moral gymnastics that would make even the most seasoned circus performer blush. One candidate, known for his "alternative facts," argued passionately that he had the best rallies in the history of political rallies, while another claimed to be “unburdened by the past” [but still current] administration’s numerous international scandals and blunders, promising that to fix everything she h...
