Pope aide says UK is 'third world'
A cardinal due to travel to the UK with the Pope has pulled out just days after claiming Britain was like a "third world country".

German-born Cardinal Walter Kasper, 77, was to make the trip as part of the Pope's entourage.

Vatican officials have reportedly attributed the change of plans to ill health.

To the Vatican, everything is like a "third world country" as far as financial situations go.....

Re: Pope aide says UK is 'third world'
lol I'm not surprised of course the only thing worse than a paedophile speaks in behalf of this guy....a PUBLICIST!

Pope's visit: No apology from aide who called Britain third world country | World news | guardian.co.uk

Quote:
But Monsignor Oliver Lahl, Kasper's spokesman, said the cardinal considered the matter closed following a Vatican statement that claimed he was merely highlighting Britain's multi-ethnic makeup.

"Kasper meant to say there are people there from all around the world and you could be in Mumbai, Kinshasa, Islamabad or Nairobi," said Lahl.

"It was not a negative connotation, it was the opposite of racism. He meant the UK is no longer a mono-ethnic or mono-religious state, and can be a positive example for Europe."
lol first of all I love the fact that even priests have publicists (*spits*) now to spin stories for them. Secondly, I love the fact that the spin actually makes it even worse, turning towards racism.


So this is what he meant to say?

"No, no, no, no.... I meant third world as in there are a lot of darkies!"

lol
