Passing notes can be a fun way of finding a prom date, spreading rumors, or cheating on an exam. But who would've imagined it could also be used to end generations of war in the Middle East? Well, when the note-passer is Pope Benedict XVI and the note-receiver is God, it just might do the trick. Yesterday, Benedict visited the Western Wall in Jerusalem, an important Jewish religious site, and placed a letter of prayer inside one of the wall's cracks, as per tradition. In it, he called on the Holy Father to ease the suffering of Middle Eastern people specifically, as well as sad humans everywhere. However, he baffled many by asking God at the end of the note, "Do you like like me? Circle one: Yes, No, Maybe."
