Why can't all religious disputes be solved this way? I say get the Jews and the Muslims too - get em all in the ring and let em slug it out!

Think of the pay-per-view opportunities!

The French wanted to handle the disputes in Bosnia that way. Build a big wall around the country, called the cordon sanitaire, then wait 50 years. The winners take all.

Those monks need to get laid really good. I guess this is what happens if you go 40+ years without it.


A brilliant reason how come organized religion is stoopid.

Fighting amongst religious clerics has gone on since the beginning of time. It seems to be a bad "habit"with the monks.

Classic! Can't make stuff like that up.
