power to clerics.

i just finished watching part of an early broadcast of nbn news and out of the 20 minutes i watched, 10 of them must have been taken up by the lovely faces and godly comments of religious figures, each of which providing support for various leaders. it's good to see that they are being "elevated" in political circles, since they are the solution to all of lebanon's problems. seriously. i must admit that i have always looked to religious figures for refined guidance and heavenly messages.

ok, that last sentence was a lie. when i was in high school, for a creative english writing class i wrote a short play on a morally and economically corrupt priest - it took place in a confessional - and all the recent idiocy wisdom handed down to us by these men of god have given me much material that can be used to update that childhood folly. all in good time.
