People NG didn't post this video for you guys to argue about what religon is best or whatever you guys are arguing about. I'm more spiritual then anything else, my best friend is Christian, but we both are fairly liberal people on some social circles. But she has taught me a lot of really neat things about the religon, and The Vatican has always fascinated me about its mystery and secrecy.

What i do NOT condone is how they cover up some of the scandals about the sexual abuse in some churches.

@accessdenied55 Catholics are Christians, too, because they believe in Christ's resurrection, so...your comment makes no sense.

Do you mean your Protestant?

[AccessDenied55]

Im Christian, I dont like Catholics but I think the Vatican is among the most beauitful things on Earth

@relgis15 We've thrown a bigger collective rock at the train than anyone else in the world. Sell your own history.

[JohnAllenSoares]

@relgis15 The idea that you could permanently end something like world hunger by selling even every last valuable artifact in the world is ridiculous. What happens when the money runs out? You've sold off all of your history and people are still going hungry. And what about the people who buy this stuff? Now THEY've got a giant collection of religious artifacts. Is their intention to preserve my cultural history as it is my intention?

[relgis15]

@JohnAllenSoares The Vatican and everything inside it would sell for an astounding amount of money. I know that religious organizations throw a rock at the freight train of poverty, but this single transaction would produce enough money to end hunger in the world. It's a fact. Also, I'm certain that you don't know me personally. Therefore, do not attempt to judge me from behind your computer. I make charitable donations and participate in philanthropy of all kinds. So shut your cake hole.

[JohnAllenSoares]

@relgis15 You actually think selling a single collection of historical artifacts would end world hunger? And then what? You are going to start telling the people that buy all that stuff that THEY have to sell it too? Why don't you sell the computer you used to type this? Why don't you sell your car? What exactly do YOU do for the hungry? Because the Church is not only helping the hungry and the poor on this planet, they are the biggest organization doing it hands on in the entire world.

[relgis15]

It's so sad that you could sell that shit hole and end world hunger. Yet, we have to have a pedophile headquarters in the name of Jesus!

@generousg83 Just because...Like any other tradition of the CC, there is no explanation, only tradition.:)
