Are You a Man or Boy
Most Americans don’t know

When I was young, I thought many times what it meant to be a man, what it meant to be a strong man.
The television taught me that meant money and power, conquer the weak and live with the strong.
I spent hours in the gym, earning a college football scholarship. My body was strong but looking back my mind was weak.
I looked at television, drank a lot of beers, scored a few touchdowns, had college paid for but learned absolutely nothing about what it meant to be a man.
But I don’t blame my dad for that. He lost his wife when I was 10, a good solid number to lose your mother.
She died from what they said was leukemia. I never understood it, never will.
People say face up to death. It happens. I never did.
So what is the point of this story? How does it relate to the Vatican, my arch enemy?
