Deliver Us From Cynics?

I've found a quote that is the antithesis of my approach to life and cartooning. In a Good Friday message, Joe Ratzinger said: "May we never question or mock serious things in life like a cynic."

May we always do that.

The cynics' "philosophy was that the purpose of life was to live a life of Virtue in agreement with Nature. This meant rejecting all conventional desires for wealth, power, health, and fame, and by living a life free from all possessions." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynic

Yeah, I can see why the pope wouldn't like that...
