Pope has divorced the Vatican from Italian
national law effective

This is interesting...
From BBC news
In a move that has taken the Italian government by surprise, the Pope has
divorced the Vatican from Italian national law effective January
1, 2009.
With this move, the Vatican immediately reverts to its pre-1929 status,
which
means that the Pope now becomes the supreme authority on judging which of
the laws enacted by the Italian government the Vatican will choose to abide
by orreject.
This ploy has tremendous consequences for the future. According to
the January5, 2009 issue of Newsweek, the Pope firmly believes that
"his church [theCatholic Church] is the only one true church".
To underline this, the Pope declared last year that the only way for
man to gain salvation is through conversion to the Catholic faith.
Twice during the last quarter of 2008, Pope Benedict referred
to the need for the masses to prepare for the return of Christ, and his
influence was behind a failed effort during 2008 to write into EU law as a
compulsory day of rest the celebration of Sunday, the renowned sign of
global Catholicism. Furthermore, observing the current worldwide
economic chaos, he indicated that the only way to establish a sound foundation
for global economy is through attachment to a religion meaning the Catholic
Church which is"the only one true church".
In addition to undertaking these initiatives, from the earliest days of his
pontificate, the current Pope has strengthened Pope John Paul II's cry for
Europe to return to its religious and cultural roots inferring that it is
the
only way that Europe will regain the unity that it once knew---under the
old
Holy Roman Empire.
Students of biblical prophecy ought to really make a strong connection
between all of these recent papal pronouncements, particularly his
most recent decision to become judge and jury over Italian law. These
acts are all part of a masterful plan—one that European elites have been
committed to since the close of World War II, i.e., to resurrect that
ancient institution of the Holy Roman Empire .
With a goodly number of committed Roman Catholics embedded within the legal
and policy formulation echelons of the European Union, it is guaranteed
that the EU legislative body [the European Parliament] will now
increasingly take note of papal judgments not only on Italian law, but more
significantly the laws of the EU.
This latest move by Pope Benedict sets a highly dangerous precedent
for
Europe. It is one step toward the Vatican encouraging the imposition
of a legal system that is destined to not only control the practice of
religion throughout Europe, but also to control the lives of the masses
[all over the world] to the point of life-and-death issues.
