VATICAN CITY - The Vatican's newspaper has finally forgiven John Lennon for declaring that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, calling the remark a "boast" by a young man grappling with sudden fame.
The comment by Lennon to a London newspaper in 1966 infuriated Christians, particularly in the United States, some of whom burned Beatles' albums in huge pyres.
But time apparently heals all wounds.


"The remark by John Lennon, which triggered deep indignation mainly in the United States, after many years sounds only like a 'boast' by a young working-class Englishman faced with unexpected success, after growing up in the legend of Elvis and rock and roll," Vatican daily Osservatore Romano said.
The article, marking the 40th anniversary of the Beatles' "The White Album," went on to praise the pop band.
"The fact remains that 38 years after breaking up, the songs of the Lennon-McCartney brand have shown an extraordinary resistance to the passage of time, becoming a source of inspiration for more than one generation of pop musicians," it said.
Lennon was murdered in New York in 1980.





(My translation? "Oh, shit guys...he was right!")

Edit: another thought....this is probably what the Romans and Jewish people were thinking 30 years after they killed Jesus, when his apostles started making the first churches! hahahahaha

Is taking easy pot shots at an impotent relic of the past cool?

I honestly don't care what the Vatican does or says and I was raised Catholic. There are far more relevant things to hold against the church than John Lennon but to focus on that is just snobbish.

Is this really a potshot? I just saw the news article and decided to post. I didn't know the Vatican was still holding it against John, but apparently....they were until....JUST now.

lol.

In March, the Vatican erected a state of Galileo after condemning him four hundred years prior.

In 1999, Pope John Paul II praised Nicholas Copernicus work. Again, after condemning him nearly four hundred years prior.

Next year, the Vatican will hold a conference to admit that Darwin made sense.

These men are far more significant than John Lennon in any stretch of the imagination. If the stubborn ignorance of the church is something new to you, then I guess you just haven't been paying attention.
