Zambroski Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Ahhh......"good" Christians. "God bless you my son....now where is your fucking money?!?!" God's love may be free, but the Vatican says it has a copyright on the pope. Unnerved by the proliferation of papal-themed T-shirts, snow globes and tea towels around the world, the Vatican has warned it intends to "protect" the image of Pope Francis and "stop situations of illegality that may be discovered." It also wants to protect the crossed keys emblem of the Holy See. "The secretary of state will undertake systematic surveillance aimed at monitoring the way in which the image of the Holy Father and the emblems of the Holy See are used, intervening with opportune measures when necessary," the Vatican said in a statement. To back up this declaration, the Vatican has hired the global law firm Baker McKenzie to protect its intellectual property rights, the Italian daily Corriere della Sera reported. without citing the source of the information. Baker McKenzie declined to comment. http://www.wcpo.com/news/our-community/religion/gods-love-may-be-free-but-pope-francis-is-copyrighted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's real religious and knows I'm not but said anyone who enjoys history (fact or fiction) would find it amazing to see.

They think he can promote mortal beings that have died to suddenly here the prayers of those alive on earth. So yes, they think he is gods representative here on earth. Crazy but true.
