Muller To Build Vatican II Theme Park

VATICAN -- Speaking to the press Wednesday afternoon, Prefect of the Congregation of the Doctrine of Faith Archbishop Gerhard Ludwig Muller announced plans to create the first ever Vatican II theme park.

"We're very thrilled about the opportunities that the theme park will bring to the Church. In particular, we're excited to see how it may become a tool for fostering a culture of open dialogue with in a fun and exciting setting," Muller said, before giving reporters an inside look at one of the rides being developed for the park. "We have many rides being developed as we speak, but one of my favorites is our state-of-the-art ferris wheel where Vatican and SSPX officials can sit down and discuss the important issues of Vatican II while going around in circles."

An SSPX spokesman later told Eye of the Tiber that they reject the premise of the theme park altogether, and that they plan to dissuade their followers from entering, saying, "It is an evil theme park; that is the correct term to describe it...not invalid or illicit, but evil."

You mean we have not been in the park, these past 40 years?
I thought this park had the scariest FUNhouse on the planet.
Eye of the Tiber...they come up with some funny stuff! Of course, they could only exist in this amusement park reality we are all living in.More

John is correct in his immediate reaction to "fun park" Rome. He has, however, not caught (or not mentioned) the ferris wheel jab by Archbishop Müler. Talking with the SSPX is just going around in circles and leading nowhere. The conclusion seems to be that such talks are really silly and useless. I veiw the jab as a relegation of the SSPX (including its preference for Latin in the Mass) as a backhand rejection of further serious confrontation (not dialogue as dialogues lead no where) which offers a soluton one way or another. Alas, Pope Francis has made it clear that any restoration is "ideology" and Latin is o.k. for people with a certain "sensitivity" (pyschological problem???). The Pope is not Goofy, rather a man who has affirmed Vat II and the changes it has brought about. Reactions of a negative sort are but "sensittivy", i.e., not to be taken seriously. Given the dancing bishops at the last Youth fling with the at time impius handing over the Eucharist to the "audience" suggests that the Pope has gone "protestant" in liturgical form, though remaining Catholic in substance.
