VATICAN BUYS EUROPE’S LARGEST GAY SAUNA
In news that’s sure to embarrass the Cardinals gathered in Rome to elect a new Pope, it’s been revealed that the Catholic Church has bought a building housing 19 Vatican apartments as well as Europe’s largest gay sauna.
The Independent has reported that the Vatican has purchased the €23m building on the central Aureliana road in the Italian capital.
Embarrassingly, senior Vatican figure Cardinal Ivan Dias lives in a first floor 12 room apartment directly above the ground floor Europa Multiclub Sauna and Gym.
According to the venue’s website, Europa Multiclub is “a place willed and created by men and for men only”.
The venue offers a “mega Turkish bath”, a sauna, a pool with a waterfall, “relax rooms with video”, a video room and a cinema as well as massages, parties and shows, including a “bear night”.
Apart from now being the landlord of a gay sauna, the Vatican is also reeling from a number of recent gay-related scandals.
It was reported by the Italian media last month that Pope Benedict XVI’s resignation was partly prompted by his upset over a secret report that found that various interest groups, including a ‘gay lobby,’ were exercising “inappropriate influence” in the Vatican.
The report apparently identified a number of meeting places in and around Rome – including a villa and a sauna – for a gay network of Vatican clergy and officials; where gay sex acts had presumably taken place.
Also last month, the most senior Catholic cleric in the UK was forced to resign over sexual misconduct allegations brought against him by a number of priests. Cardinal Keith O’Brien later admitted to inappropriate sexual conduct.
LOL- love it !!!
I am sure the Vatican State clergymen at least visited the building before buying it with Italian citizens’ tax money. They will obviously claim that they didn’t know they had just become the landlords of the largest gay sex venues in Europe. I wonder if they will still accept the rent payment from an establishment that makes its money from hedonistic, immoral, dirty GAY SEX! I just cannot stop laughing!!!!
maybe they bought the building to shut down the sauna *smiley* lol
haha….biggest gay network in the world is now a landlord to the biggest gay sex club….perhaps the new pope may come from vienna and live up the his countries name’s sake.
Man I couldn’t stop laughing for the last two days. This is truely a blessing for those of who r Christians Im sure the Catholic Church had us in mind. I can now go to the sauna have my fun and goto confession all in the same build… and who say the men of cloth aren’t good marketers, talk about convenince… provided of course the priests aren’t in the basement with me, than I’ll have wait till thier “Holy Mission” lmao!! M, ALL Churches have a loophole for that… when money is given to the church it is all considered unclean so they concentrate it n than use it… convenient huh?
