# Holy Promotion! Sinead Shows Her True Collars. SINEAD O�CONNOR is climbing
the ecclesiastical ladder quickly, with news that she's been promoted to
Archdeacon of the Tridentine Church after 12 months. Having taken the name
Mother Bernadette Mary, O�Connor has also been named a Doctor of Divinity
in Divine Healing. Hail! http://music365.co.uk/autocontent/news_029804.htm
# Easter play has Jesus referring to disciples as "dudes". In this modern
<http://www.sacbee.com/news/news/local07_20000424.html> production, Jesus
was sentenced to deletion, not crucifixion, & Judas was called a "twisted
punk." Sez the pastor: "We tried to push the boundaries a little bit and
the creative level a little bit." [ via http://www.obscurestore.com/ ]
: Since I declared all sentient entities in the universe to be DEITIES a few
years ago, Sinead is of course a goddess - why doesn't she acknowledge her
divine status? Why don't you? Are gods entitled to rebuild reality at will?
