The recent letter from the special Vatican delegate/ overseer/re-educator for the Order of Malta to Fra' Matthew Festing represents another infamous chapter in the ominous increasing power of the present pontiff. Not content with interfering with and eventually co-opting a internationally recognised sovereign entity, now it issues requests preventing individuals from setting foot in another separate sovereign state. The gentleman in question can not visit the Trevi fountain or the Victor Emmanuel Monument!! The English gent has every right to visit the Eternal city and amble around it, if he feels some sense of duty or heeds the polite letter he can choose not to set one foot in the territory of the Vatican city state but he can not be prevented from spending time in the capital of Italy!!
We, as free minded democratic people must resist this power grab from the humble pontiff and his minions, it is time to stand up or else you may find a Vatican tank parked outside your door in the morning. !!!
In other news, Pope Emeritus/ Father Benedict, yes you remember him the other guy in white, celebrated his 90th birthday!! Which leads to a thought, Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her 90th birthday a while ago yet she is still on the throne?? She must be made of sterner stuff (but they both have German heritage) or is it that her advisers didn't push her? That particular tangled web will take a while to unravel. Meanwhile sit back, break out the popcorn and enjoy the auto-demolition of the one true Faith.
