Save The Trees?

The Pope said the other day, to his Vatican bureaucracy, that sexual relations between loving and commited gay partners was akin to burning down trees in the rain forests, which practice is said to greatly damage the air we all breathe on our Earth. Apparently, at least according to this learned gentleman, care for the ecology of the planet really does matter and intimate relations between a couple who are not hetero and married equates to removing oxygen from the atmosphere and thus endangers the future of humanity: if the gays keep at it there won't be any more babies being born. Or something like that. What in the world is this man talking about?

It has been said that, well, the gas emitted by cattle herds that move on to the land deserted by the trees--so that they, in their turn, can provide more hamburgers to, well, already quite big people--has become so plentiful that it may actually damage the ozone layer. Studies on the noxious effects of papal gas emissions are on-going and must now include this latest room-clearing blast.
