Eeeeew, they so need a makeover, what would Gok (popular British fashionista and all round sweetheart) say?
It's a road accident of colour, Santa Claus meets one of the three wise men and pinches all the roses from Snow White. Have they not heard that less is more?
@Gail: And we're not counting all the servants and slaves, bank accounts, real estate, and and.... @GM: And the ones we don't know about.... @Irene: Exactly. Why don't they model themselves on their Master? @Hull: Clutter brought into a brand new dimension, I agree. XO WWW
It's like our stimulas package, take from the worker and give to the do nothings. As long as we are mandated to fund this fiasco the problems will not be resolved. Am I seeing Red? Yes, in more ways than one.
When I visited the Vatican I sent my In-laws, who are catholics, a postcard from the Vatican post office with the special stamp. All I wrote was "Don't bother to donate anymore money to the church, they have plenty". I don't think they ever received that postcard.
Brighid: I never expected anything more of either of them. It is all talk to please the masses and do what they darn well please with the precious pennies of the peasantry. XO WWW
A lot!

ReplyDeleteIf they sold what they were wearing in this picture and gave that money to the poor, I guess they can feed about 50 starving families off the bat!
It all went wrong somewhere along the line didn't it, WWW ?
ReplyDeleteI tried to find out how much the RC church is really worth, overall. Hard question, apparently.

However much it is - it's TOO MUCH!
And of course if they sold off the Vatican and moved into a unit at the local business park. Just think how much cash that would raise.
