EXURGE DOMINE ET JUDICA CAUSAM TUAM PSALM 73.

"Thus by the time the final edict expelling Jews from Spain was issued in 1492, the Spanish Inquisition was ready to counter any religious deviation from within the Christian community. It adopted for its emblem a verse from Psalm 73: Exurge Domine et judica causam tuam " "Rise Up, O Lord, and Judge Thine Own Cause!" "

Cardenal [El Cascarrabias] Pedro sat sipping a red wine from the Extremadura region. He could taste strawberries and pears. He thought, "Puedo saborear fresas y peras."

Next door his team was busy.

He'd left a priest named Roberto in charge, but Roberto was wandering around telling all the suffering people that he loved them. Cardenal Pedro couldn't make sense of that.

He yelled, "¿Lo que está sucediendo?"

There was no reply from the other room. All he heard was a woman's voice crying, "¡Por favor, déjame bajar!"

In his past Pedro had run a blog called 'El Cascarrabias' that had a readership of two. Two old men called Roberto and Ricardo. Roberto and Ricardo had a disagreement about the Catholic Church and things were getting quite hot, except that Roberto just told Ricardo that he loved him and then started writing about two colourful birds.

Pedro left a comment on Roberto's blog saying, "Uno de tus pájaros es gay."

Really Pedro was just winding Roberto up, but then, as he often did, he took everything too far and called in the Spanish Inquisition. Well, at least Ricardo seemed to be staying out of the way.

So far, at least. Maybe he was busy reading Psalm 73?
