Boy, I pity the pope who'll have to clean up the Church after J.P. II's death.

The names "Mahony" and "Clark" come up, and this prominent Roman cardinal gets one massive hankering for a case of Pepto-Bismol.

Left: While still a Cardinal, Papa Benedetto practiced the Vulcan Mind meld on himself.

Right: Cardinal Ratzinger wistfully daydreams of the day when he can revive the Spanish Inquisition, in Los Angeles.

Trying to establish his "street cred," then-Cardinal Ratzinger flashes the secret Tridentine gang signs to the crowd.
