¿Quién es más macho?
Hunter S. Thompson? o Juan Paulo II?
They both dealt with suffering in different ways.
HERE’S AN INTERESTING PIECE ON THAT.
(Cowboy hat tip to the reader who sent it.)
Author: Jimmy Akin
Jimmy was born in Texas, grew up nominally Protestant, but at age 20 experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant seminary professor, he started an intensive study of the Bible. But the more he immersed himself in Scripture the more he found to support the Catholic faith, and in 1992 he entered the Catholic Church. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in Surprised by Truth. Besides being an author, Jimmy is the Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, a contributing editor to Catholic Answers Magazine, and a weekly guest on "Catholic Answers Live."

¡El Papa es más macho!
Unfortunately, my first thought when I heard about Thompson shooting himself was “Well, of course he did.”.
There was an op-ed piece in today’s Boston Globe that made the exact same point. http://www.boston.com/news/globe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2005/03/03/no_glory_in_suicide/
is the link if you are interested.
Ninguno es mas macho.
