NBC reports that to pay his way through school, the Pope used to be a bouncer at a Buenos Aires bar.
3 Questions That Arise From This Story
- Hey, why is this surprising? When you hang with folks that turn water into wine, someone’s gonna get tossed from that party.
- Did unruly patrons get tossed into a confessional booth? That would be really efficient for anyone hoping to earn a future in the Catholic Church.
- Did this Pope have a policy of admitting everyone to the bar, and not turning people away like Studio 54? We imagine so, since he said there’s a place in heaven for atheists. Less good for Fire Code regulations, though! In fairness, we’ve heard that there’s no fire in heaven, so we can understand the misunderstanding.
