The Pope Did It?

[SSlater]

I have had some time to read, so I devoted that time to Father Charles Paschal Telespher Chiniquy and I am happy that I can present this WRITTEN report of my findings - because I can't pronounce his name.
I can neither prove or disprove anything that has been said for or against him -- for or against Lincoln -- for or against the Catholics. I have determined that politicians say that there are only two religions, Catholics and non-Catholics. The big difference between them - we elect non-Catholics.

You can't risk, dear reader, in not believing me. I might be right, but you can't prove I'm wrong.

I will tell you a long held secret, know to only a few special Catholics.
I am a graduate of the Catholic University of America, located in Washington, D.C - ( for obvious reasons.) Even though my Degree is called Architectural Engineering, we have had classes in "Political Deception", and my Degree allows me to call upon the Jesuits for advice and assistance in any political situation. I have never had a reason to use that privilege, yet.

This criticism of Father Chiniquy is unacceptable. it has to stop, or I may have to sic the Jesuits on you. So, believe what I say, without proof.

Laurie. You had question about representation in the Vatican. (186? t0 198? ) The Vatican was located entirely within another country until Feb. 11, 1929. At that time it became an Independent State, however, still amid Mussolini and his Buddy, Hitler's territory . I suspect this had an effect on making The Vatican available to visitors. Can anyone fix the events the opened up the Vatican in 198? ?
