Oh man, this butler is bold.
Stealing from the Pope? It just
sounds so risky.
While under the Pope’s employ, this butler stole hundreds of
confidential Church documents and gave them to a journalist. He is also accused of stealing a check made out
to the Pope, a gold nugget, and 16th century translation of Virgil’s
“Aenied”.
The documents allegedly reveal that the church is really
corrupt and routinely silences any internal voices that push reform. I couldn’t find many specifics in the news,
but one central allegation is that people bribed the Church in order to gain an
audience with the Pope.
Some think the Butler is merely caught up in a bigger power
struggle between powerful factions of the Church.
Bottom line: The Catholic Church is really struggling.
