Vatican 'forgives' John Lennon

A Vatican newspaper has forgiven the late English singer John Lennon for saying four decades ago that The Beatles were more popular than Jesus.
Lennon told a British newspaper in 1966 - at the height of Beatlemania - that he did not know which would die out first, Christianity or rock and roll.

Jesus was not available for comment but was expected to say "I forgave John before he said it, I forgive the Vatican and will probably even forgive Tex for this post."
