This just in…. cut from the Vatican video feed…
Another angle, from Eduard Habsburg’s twitter…
I can’t decide.
Either the Borg have arrived or we have proof that the Vatican finally has an Amazon Prime account.
UPDATE… okay…
Confirmed: ?
The Vatican has an Amazon Prime subscription. https://t.co/ziDkOIkmvl— Dr Taylor Marshall™? (@TaylorRMarshall) March 30, 2024
I can hear Richard Strauss playing in my head. Hopefully, none of the “Spirit of the Council” types figure out how to use animal bones to assert control or things could get ugly. (Uglier)
My initial reaction was that it reminded me of the exterior of the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles, California.
If it comes in one box, it’s not Amazon.
To quote Monty Python, “On second thought, let’s not go to Camelot. It is a silly place.”
They may think resistance id futile but the Church Militant is alive and well.
Happy Easter Father!
In the interests of moving away from fossil fuels, the Vatican has decided to install a small nuclear power plant in St. Peters.
Ugh.
When our church was completely restored we put up with scaffolding everywhere for months. That was better than this box!
Everything “they” do is ugly.
Yes Father G, How about the one in Brazil? The Metropolitan that looks like a washing machine agitator?
They could have done a nice Tyvek drape with an image of the Baldachino on it.
Father Z, did I overlook it but I don’t recall reading your 2024 predictions and the results of your 2023 predictions.

Nitpicking scaffolding covers?
Thanks Father.
Repeating what Fr. G. stated (above), yes… this definitely reminds me of that awful post-modern and atrociously designed L.A. “cathedral”.
I have always had the impression that those opaque scaffolding screens were required by some Italian regulation resulting from the confluence of aesthetic concern and a compulsion for government officiousness. The screens may just be par for the course for the scaffolding sub.
Is anyone else worried about what is going on inside that box or what this “restoration” project entails? From sad experience, I trust neither the motives nor the results of anything this gang does…
Happy Easter to you Father.
Now, does the box have kung pow chicken or beef with broccoli? Hot and crispy egg rolls? Hmmm….. getting hungry. Where do they sell good Chinese food around here?
