Sorry, I don't have much respect for Vatican, especially under Benedict XVI, so the fact that they use the same metaphor as Le Pen doesn't make it more acceptable. And it has nothing to do with religion.

It doesn't matter what you or I think about Vatican. He's a minister of a state which isn't really subservient to anyone, and can talk more freely than most ministers. That's it - an indication of a notion that's in the air.
