Mote Fishing

A catholic writer, (or perhaps just a headline writer,) stands up and prays:
O God, I give thee thanks that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, power-hungry hypocrites, as also is that Curial official.
(And before you think it, I freely acknowledge it.  Being  phariseezy myself, I knows'em when I sees'em. In fact, that is why I am a student of human nature, I study others that I may see my own faults. Isn't the the entire raison d'etre of Those Interwebs? a royal road to self-awareness.)
