Pope opens synod with Wiccan staff, called a 'stang' – what else does he need to do? Don a red suit and carry a trident pitchfork?

I mean, John Paul II kissed the Koran. Smooched the quackeries of the Moon god. So now El Caudillo Bergoglio does the Pole one better.

Apparently this stang was given to Tío Jorge on August 11 by a group of young Italians. In the Circus Maximus, yet.

Talk about signs and portents!

On October 3, Pope Francis opened the Synod of Bishops on the topic of "youth, faith and vocational discernment" in Saint Peters Square in Vatican City, and instead of holding a traditional papal ferula he was clutching what looked a lot like a Wiccan "stang." Conservative Catholics were appalled and viewed the pope's choice of staff as evidence that something diabolical is going on at the Vatican. Others thought it was no big deal.

"In its simplest form, a forked staff, Witches use the Stang in various ways including representing the Horned One, aiding in spirit flight, and directing energy," a pagan blogger wrote at Patheos.

Witches claim that they can draw spirits up from the underworld through their stangs.

And you-all know just what sort of "spirits" those guys are.
