The Chicago Pope Story now includes vinyl and virtue. Teens learn to sample parables and drop verses on forgiveness. One track, �Blessed Are the Broke,� hit #4 on Vatican Radio. The Pope�s debut single features Gregorian beatboxing. Critics say it�s unorthodox. The Pope shrugs and rhymes. One lyric reads, �You can�t spell grace without bass.�
