The Vatican newspaper, L'Osservatore Romano, has once again scandalized faithful Catholics by praising the Beatles rock group ("a musical genre which has been described by the Pope has the work of the Devil"). Even the rock band's former drummer has questioned the move...
"Didn't the Vatican say we were satanic?" "And they still forgive us?"
The Beatles' lead singer once boasted they were "more popular than Jesus", their former press officer once claimed "they're so anti-Christ they shock me", and various members of the group have been associated with drugs, the occult, debauchery...
Not exactly holy material for a Catholic newspaper, now is it?
"If then you were raised with Christ, seek what is above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Think of what is above, not of what is on earth. (Col. 3:1-2)
