Business Ethics
At the Vatican, we’re not about money like other “big businesses.” We’re about saving souls.
Sure, the old Popes in the medieval ages were a bit greedy. But, not me; I’m more interested in your eternal destiny.
And bribery doesn’t work with me. Just because you send me 1,000 U.S. dollars doesn’t mean I will get your dead relative or friend out of purgatory, or hell for that matter. I will not compromise my business or religious ethics for money.
Besides, I’m worth more than that. My speaking fee alone is 5000 U.S. dollars per hour. And my agent thinks I can get more.

The only thing you have got to peddle is believe.
And you're worth every penny.
I hope you succeed in saving many, many souls.
Send any of the money and gifts you forego my way, please. I'm already saved and could use the benefits of a little greed. Thanks, Your Holiness.

How much would we need to come up with to make sure that you are not replaced when you die? Of course, we all know that you're irreplaceable. That's why. Yeah, that's why.

The church can not be considered a business - it pays no taxes!
Of course if it were a business, how could it prove what it sells? The Federal Trade Comission would bring it down for false advertising :)
You should definitely think about raising your costs! Materialism is in in today's world. Definitely not overrated like cars or bars of soap!
By the way: I have some provocative posts on Jesus on my blog, and I would very, very much welcome your holy opinion.
What can I get for $43.75?
So just what do we get for the $5,000 an hour. Power Point? Magic Tricks? Ballons?

What if I promise to be a good girl? Would you get a dead relative out of purgatory for me? Just asking. Probably the relative in question is already in hell.
Hey! can you get a soul out of HELL? Now that would be worth the big bucks...not that you or the church care about money.

Dear Pope Benedict XVI,
One of the article groups on my site is Business ... while searching for details on business ethics, I came across " this post ".
It is widely accepted that a lot of the best articles on the internet is created by individuals who blog ... good quality content without the bias and waffle often found elsewhere.
Judging by your blog content I believe you are interested in business ethics, and will therefore find our Business category to be of interest. I am frequently looking for individuals to submit articles on their pet subjects and help me to build the directory to everyone's benefit. As a contributor, you get the recognition of having your article published and seen by thousands of web users. The pride and satisfaction of seeing your article published in a prestige directory is hard to beat.
Few of us are gifted with the ability to write to professional standards of grammatical correctness ... as a result, many bloggers don't bother to have their articles published.
I accept articles written in an informal style that matches your personality and fits in with your article content. I also welcome articles that are uniquely based on your personal knowledge, experiences and opinions. All I ask is that your articles do not contain vulgar language, incite hatred or generally offensive.
There are no costs involved ... please come over and have a look at my blog articles directory for yourself.
Kind Wishes
Emily
