Typical yok, blaming The Chosen for something the Italians did.

And if you say "Well, you don't blame a lion for killing a gladiator in a ring, you blame the emporer for sending him into the ring".
Well, I think the Italians should take more resonciblity for it. Oooohhh, they have that vatican thing, big fucking woop, and I thought the jews had a guilt complex.

Cause that's just what us wops say to make it seem better.
Wop stands for without papers.
As lots of Italian immigrants didn't have passports they would stand in this queue at the docks in the 19th century.

Roman empire wasn't in any way particularly Italian
neither, for that matter, are catholics.

It's pretty much a coincedence that the Vatican is in Italy. Next most important places to the catholics are in France and Spain as it happens.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 19 Dec 2011, 9:43, Reply)

It's no coincidence the Vatican is in Rome, seen as the Roman empire became christian.

( mark morrisons prison shoes I love Willie, Mon 19 Dec 2011, 9:44, Reply)

the fact that it's the seat of the Catholic church
isn't really much to do with the Italians, though. In the whole christianity/catholic split, for long periods Spain, France and even England were more "important" to the Catholic church. I thought it was the Vatican by default since England and France effectively overthrew Catholic rulers?
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 19 Dec 2011, 9:47, Reply)

Seen as Italy wasn't a country until fairly recently you are correct.
Gonz is being facetious though, as am I.
The papal states pimped themselves out to anyone who would defend them, as the defenders of the faith. Hence why the Spanish and French are important Cathiolic countries.

The Vatican is in Rome because the Roman Empire became catholic. That be a FACT.
( mark morrisons prison shoes I love Willie, Mon 19 Dec 2011, 9:52, Reply)

I think Gonz is being stoned.
Yeah, I fucked up with the holy roman empire, I didn't realise that when they tried to resurrect the whole shebang through the catholic church they called it "empire" again.

The Romans would have killed any Italian catholics on sight, though, which does kind of put a flaw in Gonz'z idea.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 19 Dec 2011, 9:55, Reply)

How would they have done that? Catholics didn't exist in the Empire before it became Christian.
The Catholic church split from the Orthodox church way after that.

So the Romans be burning and killing normal Christians and to be honest that was somewhat overstated. Romans were quite into religious tolerance.
( mark morrisons prison shoes I love Willie, Mon 19 Dec 2011, 9:57, Reply)

I meant in the sense that catholics would be a christian sect.
Mostly the Romans weren't mad for Christians. They displayed some tolerance some of the time but then tend to spoil it with massive outbursts of religious genocide.

Hmm, not really and they mostly made examples of folk.
The Romans had a simple solution to religion, worship who you like as long as you acknowledge our gods. So, they did get pissy at the Christians sometimes but mostly left them alone.

The Jews are the ones who really got it in the necks. One rebellion too many for them.
