” the homeless line up to wash beneath the extravagant apostolic apartments”

Is he going to have Swiss Guards on site to make sure those showers don’t become dens of iniquity?

Finally! A place for the masses of welfare-receiving eight-child families of Rome’s exploding Muslim population to catch some rays, take that weekly bath with hot water at Vatican expense (you’ll only understand if you’ve lived in Europe,) leave some wrappers and dirty diapers on the colonnade and grill some Halal kebabs on a Friday afternoon!

They need to be aware of that very likely hood. One of the Mall stores closed the mens bathroom because gays were hooking up there. They rove the Malls looking for a quick fix to satisfy their perverted addiction....and learned repeatedly by the same men just exchanging partners throughout the evenings.

Security said it was like watching a revolving door.

I hope Harry Reid doesn’t get any ideas and build some showers for the stinky tourists that frequent his office hall passageway.

He already washes feet,, so what’s a few showers?

As long as they’re coed, of course.

Seems like a lot of work for one guy. Maybe Sidney Poitier can help him?

Actually it is a good jester but they will need to have an attendant. These characters don't look like the typical dirty homeless we imagine

Vatican Homeless
