If you watched the season finale of The West Wing last Wednesday, you might have wondered what Bartlet was saying when he was talking to God in Latin. I know I was curious, so I went and found out:

• "Gratias tibi ago domine." -- I give thanks to you, O Lord.
• "Haec credam a deo pio? A deo iusto, a deo scito? Cruciatus in crucem. Tuus in terra servus, nuntius fui. Officium perfeci. Cruciatus in crucem. Eas in crucem." -- Am I really to believe that these are the acts of a loving God? A just God? A wise God? To hell with your punishments. I was your servant here on Earth. And I spread your word and I did your work. To hell with your punishments. To hell with you.

I can't wait until next season...
