The Vatican just announced that they are sending a track and field team to the Olympics:

Personally, I think this is awesome. But, I'm bracing for snarky sex-scandal comments from the usual suspects here.

As long as they make the time standards, I dont see a problem. But you know what is going to happen, all of a sudden there are going to be 6 Kenyans working for the Vatican, you know, the ones that only run 2;06 for the marathon...

What do they think the 62 year old guy is going to compete in?? Dont think they have auto racing in the olympics, so pretty much will be shut out, unless he is the Earl Anthony of the Vatican!!!

Yeah I was thinking of sending this to my daughter and telling her when she gets her MD she might want to look at working in the Vatican so she can become an Olympic thrower.

Is prayer considered a PED? ;-)

Yah, I don't see them being in the running for medals, even if they can qualify for some events. But, I think it will be cool to watch, sort of like the first Jamaican Bobsled team.

This is cool. The Olympics need a ‘country’ whose leadership do not allow women in the ranks, whose leaders are banned from marriage and are banned from performing gay marriage, who ban birth control and whose leadership have a nasty habit of sexual assaulting young boys. It’s about time the Olympics move into the 12th century.

I think they will have an unfair advantage in the pole vault;

Is it just me or is the Pope's refusal to address the sexual abuse hanging over every message put out by the Catholic church?
