Quote:

posted: ROME (Reuters) - The Italian branch of the hackers group Anonymous took down the Vatican's website on Wednesday, saying it was an attack on the Roman Catholic Church's scandals and conservative doctrine.


The Vatican website www.vatican.va was inaccessible. A spokesman said he could not confirm that the crash was the work of the hackers group but said technicians were working to bring it back up.


A statement on the Italian website of the loosely-knit cyber-activists group accused the Church of being responsible for a long list of misdeeds throughout history, including the selling of indulgences in the 16th century and burning heretics during the Inquisition.


"Today, Anonymous has decided to put your site under siege in response to your doctrine, liturgy and the absurd and anachronistic rules that your profit-making organization spreads around the world," the website said.



God supports anonymous over the Vatican? How else could it have happened?

You know at least they're willing to have a fight over it.


The rest of you pussies cower in fear that either A. The govt will punish you or B. God will.


Kudos to them for at least picking a fight.

Launching a DoS is not picking a fight... in fact, it's conceding the fight. Essentially all the twits at Anon did was...

I am really glad that someone is finally getting around to punishing the Vatican for selling indulgences in the 16th century. This is clearly one of the pressing issues of our times and I'm glad anonymous is on the case!
