Pope Gregory XII Resigns!!!

Manka Bros., Khan Manka, God Blog, Dominic Lanza, Pope Gregory XII, Innocent VII, Martin V, Western Schism, Angelo Correr, Angela Corraro, Antipope Benedict XIII, King Ladislaus, Benedict XVI, Pope resigns, Carol I Malatesta, College of CardinalsPOPE GREGORY XII RESIGNS!!!

That was the headline from the Roman Daily Whatever on July 4, 1415.

And today’s headline about Benedict XVI is no less shocking. But there are millions of sources writing about that subject today. No need for one more.

So I say – who is this Pope Gregory XII and why the heck did he resign from such a great job?

Well, he sort of had to because the very small College of Cardinals at the time (many were just relatives) made a deal with Pope Gregory XII in 1406 that if the other Pope in Avignon (Antipope Benedict XIII (1394-1423) were to, in the future, renounce all claims to the Papacy (which he reluctantly did on July 4, 1415), Pope Gregory XII would also have to resign so that a fresh election could be made and a new Pope could start a new era for the Church.

(But not before Gregory XII got four of his relatives into the College of Cardinals – one who eventually became Pope Eugene IV.)

Once you introduce someone with a title “Antipope” – you know you’re in for trouble.

There was lots of corruption, lots of family fights, lots of things, in general, that Jesus wouldn’t approve of much.

Thank God the Church has fixed all those little problems.

For a good little summary of the whole Pope Gregory XII resignation – head on over to Wikipedia (where we all get our facts).

As far as Pope Benedict XVI’s resignation goes – my Catholic intuition tells me that all is not as it seems at the Vatican.

If failing health was a solid reason for resignation, nearly every Pope would have resigned years and years before they died.

None of those guys are ever healthy. Their diet is just a ridiculous amount of sauces and carbs. And the wine consumption? Forget it.

It’s not a healthy job.

Dying in office is what you do when you’re a Pope.

Being Pope isn’t like being President of the United States.

There aren’t ex-Pope’s running around building houses and giving speeches.

You’re Pope, even if you’re sick, and then you die as Pope.

Details will come out eventually on why Benedict XVI really resigned – and I have a feeling it won’t be pretty.

What a day! 

Manka Bros. Studios – The World’s Largest Media Company – in association with its Manka Faith theatrical division – Original Sinema – will begin production on the Book Of Habakkuk which is the eighth book of the 12 minor prophets of the Hebrew Bible.

Great stuff!

The Book of Judges will be made for approximately $5 million (mostly camel rental – ha!  Just kidding, it’s an awesome story.  One of the best books of the Old Testament!)

As for The Book of Habakkuk (we call it ‘Haba’ in production meetings), I’m fairly certain $300 million is the biggest movie budget in the history of motion pictures.  Others may have cost more to produce (i.e., Avatar, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, etc.) but none have announced their budget at the BEGINNING as $300 million.  Just imagine where this one will end up (kidding again, Khan Manka, Jr.!).

And it will all be on the screen.

You may ask why we’re taking such a huge risk.

To us, this is a much safer bet than something like Tae Kwon Doug which cost only $45 million to produce but will barely make back $1,500 if it’s lucky.

We just know in our gut that there’s a lot of money in this God stuff.

A lot.

So we’re willing to roll the dice.

And if all works out – there are plenty more books of the Old and New Testaments to keep this machine running!

Check back here over the next few months for updates on casting, locations and, in general, how everything is moving along.

It’s a pleasure to be “glogging” you and telling you about the exciting things coming up from our Faith-based Theatrical label – Original Sinema.

We are just about to begin production on The Book Of Judges.

This is a very exciting project for us.

In my opinion, it is one of the best books in all the old or new testaments.

It’s just so well structured that there is very little that we needed to change (a few character names and the sequence of events here and there).

It’s got some great text and action and it’s all very “theatrical” – which is why we chose it for our inaugural production.

Check back here whenever you can for updates from the set.

I leave you with the quote we’ll use on the one-sheet.

“Every Man Did That Which Was Right In His Own Eyes” – Book of Judges 21:25.

Cheers!

We are really upset right now about some of the most popular songs being played on the radio.  They do NOT make us want to LOL.

We don’t know what country this Katy Perry person is from, but if she thinks she can corrupt the minds of today’s American kids, she’s sadly mistaken.

Apparently, she had a few alcohol drinks, got all confused, “kissed a girl” and she “liked” it.

See Miss Perry, this is what happens when you drink Satan’s bad girl juice.  Girl on girl action is just plain wrong (see The Gospel Of Matthew).

Something cannot feel wrong and right AT THE SAME TIME.  “Ain’t no big deal, it’s innocent”?

Think again, missy.

The only thing innocent is our love for the Lord and Savior.  It’s Jesus’ cherry chapstick you should be tasting.

How DARE he mention “The Almighty Power”, then two lines later use the MF word!  He then proceeds to use the “sh” word, the “bs” word, the “f” word for homos, the “b” word (not a female dog), and Dennis Rodman.

He refers to white people as “crackers”, mentions “coke” and talks about “loose bowels”.

Then after all this blasphemy, he has the nerve to say “And the Bible told us every girl was sour”!!

Well, we don’t know what bridge he’s “pussy poppin” on, but we’ll be damned if we’re gonna be “ill” like “L’ll”.

We’re gonna call our local Wisconsin radio station RIGHT now and demand they pull these songs from their playlist!

NO GOD IS BETTER THAN MY GOD!  You Bitch!

She is supposedly in a “play” called My God Is Better Than Your God at the Manka Open Mike Theater in Tribeca, New York City.

I am calling for an all out boycott.

This “play” must be stopped!

New York City must be stopped!

I don’t know the address of the theater or when or how long this filth is showing – but we must close it down and make this Gina Glitter pay for her crimes!

She must be killed!
