Vatican forgives John Lennon

Ugh.

Quote:

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.




Wait til he's been dead for this long so hopefully he has zero chance for rebuttal. What a bunch of db's.

I don't understand what prompts the Vatican to give these tardy pardons. It just seems to draw attention to how ridiculous their initial stance was.

This has been a non-issue for oh say the past few decades. Same things goes for them finally admitting the world is round. I think everyone else had already accepted the fact, and them putting out a press release just looks retarded.

i like how all the christians in protest of what he said, went and collected his albums and burnt them, which probably made the media, giving john lennon even more fame, making him that much more famous than jesus.

simply genius.

peace

Oh thank God, now Lennons soul will be released from purgatory and be allowed to enter the gates of paradise.
