Do you really want to do this? Do you really want me to dig into Vatican records and cite them? Can you show me where the NY Times got something wrong in the in the quotes I cited?

No, you don't. Go back to laughing like a third-grader before I give you detention.

Yes, go ahead, dig into the Vatican records. My online membership to the Vatican archives expired. I'm guessing yours hasn't.

Using the NYT as a historical reference is laughable.

I haven't been following this thread but that last comment was funny as hell.
My online membership to the Vatican archives expired.
Independent of who is right in this debate that comment cracked me up. :lol:

I've done my research. If you can show me anything in that post that isn't true I'll do your research for you as well. But you can't. You can spout your unsubstantiated opinion and laugh all you like, but if you can show nothing that proves my post wrong, you are once again arguing on a third-grade level. This is the adult table -- you won't like it here.

Since I break BookTalk.org Rule number 1 in something like every-other post, I will not copy/paste rules 9 and 13. Forget I even mentioned them.

Thanks for all the info from the Vatican Archives.
This will take me some time to sift through. You've provided a lot of material, as you said you would.

I promise to make my way through it all.

Since through your diligence and researching skills you proved my post wrong, I did your research and sent it over to the kiddie table.
