The Picture that Inspired a Nation (Jesus, archbishop, catholic, Christ)

[Djamila]

This picture, of Bosnians Archbishop Vinko Puljic and Chief Mullah Mustafa Ceric, was widely circulated in e-mail campaigns in Bosnia and Herzegovina. What the two men were talking about was the subject of gossip and speculation.

Well, OBN recently uncovered the secret! They discovered a video tape of this very moment and have released what took place.

It was actually taken a Roman Catholic Christmas celebration at the Cathedral of Jesus' Heart in Sarajevo. The two men are close friends and while they were making their way through the finger-food line, Vinko started teasing Mustafa and the transcript of the conversation goes like this:

Vinko: "My good friend, maybe if we offered better food, we'd get more visitors from your people."
Mustafa: "You'd need more realistic theology to accomplish that, dear friend."
Vinko: "Now, now. There's no need to be personal just because we put pork in your sausages."
Mustafa: "My sausages?"
Vinko: "You don't think we made sausages for the rest of us? No, my friend. They were only prepared because we knew you were coming."
Mustafa: "How considerate."
Vinko *Laughing*: "Would you like a glass of wine, my friend?"
Mustafa *Laughing*: "Not as much as you'd like one of my wives?"
*Flash of photo*

LOL You tell him Mustafa!
