VATICAN CITY - Noting his lack of discretion and overall nonchalant demeanor about the whole thing, multiple sources reported seeing Pope Francis smoking a large joint in the Vatican Gardens Wednesday morning.

According to a source at the scene, the Bishop of Rome "just moseyed on out to his garden chair after his morning tea, sat down, and sparked up this huge doobie, openly smoking in front of anyone who happened to be looking."

"People were snapping pics and everything, and he was just doing his normal smile and wave thing, not a care in the world" added the source. "He just sat there chiefing until that whole hog-leg was gone, and I mean gone, like, burning his fingertips."
