Catholic Beach Party

The decline of religion, much in the news, continues at a rapid  pace, with large numbers of people leaving the church. As if to underscore the problem, huge crowds of Brazilians fled to the beach to avoid the Roman pontiff, who was making a visit to the South American country.

The large crowds ...

Uh, wait a minute ... Scratch that: It was 3.2 million people flocking to see the pope.

Never mind.
