Apparently the Vatican wasn’t using spell check. The Holy See has recalled thousands of commemorative papal medals after the word “Jesus” was misspelled as “Lesus.” According to the Vatican Information Service, more than 6,000 of the medals were produced by the Italian State Mint to commemorate the beginning of Francis’ papacy.

London, England (CNN) — The Vatican may have forgiven the Beatles over the weekend for their “satanic” messages — but Ringo Starr, the legendary band’s drummer, says he couldn’t care less. In a tribute published to mark the 40th anniversary of the breakup of the band, who singer John Lennon once claimed were “more popular than Jesus,” the Vatican newspaper “L’Osservatore Romano” said it had forgiven them and called them a “precious jewel.” But Starr told CNN: “Didn’t the Vatican say we were satanic or possibly satanic — and they’ve still forgiven us? I think the Vatican, they’ve got more to talk about than the Beatles.”
