While touring Alaska, the Pope took a couple of days off to relax in the the mountains.
He was riding around a campground when there was a frantic commotion just at the edge of the woods. A helpless liberal, wearing sandals, shorts, a "Save the Whales" T-shirt and an ACLU Hat, was struggling frantically, thrashing around trying to free himself from the jaws of a 10 foot grizzly.
As the Pope watched horrified, a group of loggers came racing up. One quickly fired a thirty-aught-six into the bear's chest. The other two reached up and pulled the bleeding semiconscious liberal from the bear's mouth. Then using long clubs, the three loggers beat the bear to death and two of them threw it onto the bed of their truck while the other tenderly placed the injured liberal in the back seat.
As they prepared to leave, the Pope summoned them to come over to him. "I give you my blessing for your brave actions!" he told them. "I heard there was bitter hatred between loggers and environmentalists, but now I've seen with my own eyes that is not true."
As the Pope drove off, one of the loggers asked his buddies "Who was that guy?" "It was the Pope," another replied, "he's in direct contact with God and has access to all of God's wisdom."
"Well," the logger said, "he may have access to all of God's wisdom, but he sure doesn't know anything about bear hunting.....
By the way, is the bait holding up okay ....or do we need to go back to town and grab another one?"
