Yes please - a biographic on Gabriele Amorth would be great. Love all your channels - at least all I've found. Every time I turn around, I find another; when do you find the time? Much appreciated.
So, I have a fun family story about Vatican City. So, back in the late 70s or so, my great grandmother needed breast reduction surgery. However, she refused. That is until my grandmother offered her a trip to see the pope. She ended up getting 6 procedures done, and they went to see the city as many times. Now, my grandmother is not religious, and she has always been a tomboy. While in her overalls, among the crowd waiting to see the holy man, she nudged her mother with an elbow and commented "I bet I can hit him from here with my slingshot". At this, my great grandmother must have tapped into the speed-force, as even when she was a little girl, my grandmother never remembered her moving that fast. Of course, that's the same great grandmother who had a life sized statue of Jesus in her living room that always scared the crap out of me when i went to use the bathroom in the middle of the night.

As a Roman Catholic, I would like to make a small correction. When the video states that one of the sins needing forgiveness through the penitentiary is desecration of the Eucharist, this is not because it's a "symbol" of Jesus' body and blood. It is because Catholics believe that the host is transubstantiated through the Holy Spirit and really is the physical presence of Jesus, so to desecrate one is a grave sin based on that belief. Figuris terminum - the Eucharist ends all symbols.
