Vatican succumbs to attack by Italian Government
2009-09-06 00:11:00
Dino Boffo, the editor of the Catholic newspaper 'L'Avvenire', meets Pope Benedict XVI in 2005 The Times reports that an Italian Catholic editor who has been the subject of a sustained media attack by supporters of Silvio Berlusconi for criticising the Prime Minister's "immoral" lifestyle stepped down Dino Boffo, editor of Avvenire, the newspaper of the Italian Bishops Conference (CEI), said his name had been besmirched "for days and days in a war of words which has wrecked my family and stunned Italians". He said the "defamatory" attacks by Vittorio Feltri, the editor of Il Giornale, the newspaper owned by the Berlusconi family, had "violated my life" and amounted to "a desire to desecrate which I could not have imagined existed". Mr Feltri, who is leading an aggressive "counteroffensive" to "unmask" critics of scandals in Mr Berlusconi's private life, had unearthed a 2004 incident in which Mr Boffo paid a fine for alleged telephone harassment of the wife of an unnamed man...
Vatican says 'Harry Potter Good - Gay Marriage Still Bad'
2009-07-17 22:30:00
Photo Credit: gruntzooki via Flickr The Vatican has recently lauded the most recent Harry Potter movie saying that it "made the age-old debate over good vs. evil crystal clear."Say what?  Does that mean that the Vatican is now endorsing Witches, Worlocks and Wizards?It wasn't that long ago that the Vatican was saying that Harry Potter was the enemy of God and that the use of spells and witchcraft were drawing children away from the Church and into a Wiccan lifestyle.So the Church now apparently endorses Wizards but still thinks that Same-Sex Marriage will end existence as we know it.  The Catholic church just recently launched a new group called "The American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property"...
Vatican Endorses GM Foods
2009-06-07 20:18:00
I don’t expect much from the elitist over at the Vatican, but this is too much. THE Vatican seldom approves of scientists meddling with God’s creation. So the decision of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences to back oft-demonised genetically modified crops as an answer to world hunger and poverty may come as a surprise. GM crops were ...

The Vatican: Alien Life May Exist
2008-05-16 04:11:00
Writing in the Vatican newspaper, the astronomer, Father Gabriel Funes, said intelligent beings created by God could exist in outer space. The search for forms of extraterrestrial life, he says, does not contradict belief in God.The official Vatican newspaper headlines his article 'Aliens Are My Brother'. Funes went on to state: "Just as there are multiple forms of life on earth, so there could exist intelligent beings in outer space created by God. And some aliens could even be free from original sin."Interesting, I think. The Catholic church rarely makes a public statement on a topic unless it has a reason. Could it be the Church has some type of proof of aliens locked away in the Vatican library? Or perhaps they have seen something in the skies? Stay tuned...the apocalypse is upon us.RC Edrington

Vatican Observatory says aliens would be ?God?s creatures?
2008-05-15 05:44:00
Reverend Jose Gabriel Funes, the Jesuit director of the Vatican Observatory, was quoted in an Associated Press article as saying that any extraterrestrials, if they exist, would be “extraterrestrial brothers”. Apparently, Ref. Funes was interviewed on the topic of the interaction between the Roman Catholic Church and science in the Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano. In some respects, this interview was probably pointless. Extraterrestrial bacteria, never mind intelligent organisms, have yet to be discovered even within our own solar system, never mind outside it. So who cares, right? The problem is that scientists continue to launch powerful instruments like the Hubble Space Telescope and it’s eventual successor, the James Webb Space Telescope. The Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) is systematically scanning the sky, looking for unusual patterns in the background that might indicate intelligent life. The Kepler mission will search for...
Vatican: life on other planets a possibility
2008-05-15 04:07:00
Rev Jose Gabriel Funes, head of the Vatican Observatory and a scientific adviser to the Pope believes there is a strong possibility that life exists on other planets.The life forms Funes has in mind doesn't exclude humanoid types, even a race more advanced than humanity."Just as there is a multiplicity of creatures on earth, there can be other beings, even intelligent, created by God. This is not in contrast with our faith because we can't put limits on God's creative freedom."Funes sees no contradiction in belief in the existence of such beings and faith in his God. He even speculates that a good name for them might be "brother extraterrestial". No mention if they might regard such a label as sexist.It's unlikely that any alien civilization could possibly outdo the Vatican when it comes to out-and-out weirdness. The present eccentric residing on the throne of St Peter is low key compared to some of the acts that preceded him - take a glance at this list of former Popes."Sightin...
Vatican: It?s OK to believe in aliens
2008-05-14 13:02:00
In an interview published Tuesday by Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano, Funes says that such a notion “doesn’t contradict our faith” because aliens would still be God’s creatures. The interview was headlined “The extraterrestrial is my brother.” Funes said that ruling out the existence of aliens would be like “putting limits” on God’s creative freedom.

Vatican: Islam Has "Overtaken" Catholicism
2008-03-31 02:42:00
"For the first time in history, we are no longer at the top: Muslims have overtaken us," Monsignor Vittorio Formenti said in an interview with the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano. Formenti compiles the Vatican's yearbook.He said that Catholics accounted for 17.4 percent of the world population - a stable percentage - while Muslims were at 19.2 percent."It is true that while Muslim families, as is well known, continue to make a lot of children, Christian ones on the contrary tend to have fewer and fewer," the monsignor said.Formenti said that the data refer to 2006. The figures on Muslims were put together by Muslim countries and then provided to the United Nations, he said, adding that the Vatican could only vouch for its own data.When considering all Christians and not just Catholics, Christians make up 33 percent of the world population, Formenti said.Indonesia News Blog: http://indosnesos.blogspot.com-

Vatican rejects bin Laden's "new crusade" charges

The Vatican rejected on Thursday accusations by al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden that the publication of cartoons mocking the Prophet Mohammad was part of a "new crusade" involving Pope Benedict. "These accusations are totally unfounded," chief Vatican spokesman Rev. Federico Lombardi said in response to an audio recording by bin Laden which was posted on the Internet to coincide with the birthday of the founder of Islam. Italian security officials are examining the bin Laden message and its impact on the Pope. The Vatican said the Pontiff's heavy schedule of Easter celebrations this weekend would not be changed.

Can driving greener get you into heaven? Vatican says sure
2008-03-10 16:55:00
The first hints that low-mpg cars were sinful in the eyes of the Catholic Church came last fall, when a spokesman for Pope Benedict XVI confirmed that the Pope would use an April 2008 address to the UN as a way to speak to the moral implications of living a greener life. Today, the Vatican has gone a bit further and told its followers that polluting the earth should be considered a "new" sin.Archbishop Gianfranco Girotti, whom Reuters describes as "the Vatican's number two man in the sometimes murky area of sins and penance," said over the weekend that pollution ranks up there with human cloning and other genetic manipulation as barriers to heaven. There have got to be about ten thousand great editorial cartoons generated by his statement.As we know, the Vatican became the first country to fully offset CO2 emissions last summer by installing photovoltaic cells and buying carbon offset credits. If I had centuries' worth of booty stored in my basement, I could probably afford all th...
