Entry: Pope Banned from Speaking in Rome Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/wankers_ban_pope_from_speaking_in_rome#15095 Post contents: In any case, Steve has a point that this has less to do with the ideology of the protesters than with the ancestral feud between the Roman authorities and the Pope. We must not forget that the Pope was, on top of the Head of Christendom, the temporal rule of Rome, and as such, subject to the complaints of his subject who did not approve of they way he governed (as most subjects usually think of their own government). So these protesters are just one more arrow in the quiver of the temporal authorities who do not want the Pope to take power from them... Of course, he says he does not, that he will abide by the Lateran Treaty, but you cannot be too careful... Sent at: 2008 11 21
