A light hearted post

The media continue to publicize heartbreaking images of Brazilian fans after their gobsmacking loss. Quietly and in as understated a manner as you can imagine (and I mean it literally), their bitter rivals Argentina sneaked past Netherlands courtesy of a penalty shootout to book a place in the final against the rampant Germans.

It so happens that for the first time in history the Catholic Church has two living popes. And fittingly, here on the most populous catholic country in the world, in the city with the most iconic Christ statue, the final is played out between the two nations where these two living popes hail from.

I have no doubt though that they are praying for far more profound and permanent improvements to the state of mankind
