| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Vatican |
 | | The Vatican must be regarded as the administrative centre of the Catholic Church, since it is the residence of the supreme head of that Church, and from it the whole Church is governed. | | | Consequently, all action of the Italian authorities must stop at the gates of the Vatican; the inhabitants of the palace cannot be taxed, subp naed, or summoned to defend themselves. | | | They have also to take up their position in all pontifical functions in the papal chapels and in all other religious functions both within and without the Apostolic Palaces (the latter are now confined to St. Peter's) at which the pope assists. |

| | Vatican City - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | It is administered by the Holy See, the ecclesiastical seat of the Roman Catholic Church and its Eastern Rites. | | | The term "Holy See" refers to the composite of the authority, jurisdiction, and sovereignty vested in the Pope and his advisors to direct the worldwide Roman Catholic Church. | | | It is supposed that this originally uninhabited part of Rome (the ager vaticanus) had always been considered sacred, even before the arrival of Christianity. |

| | VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- The Vatican's doctrinal congregation wants to meet soon with a U.S. bishops' task force to help clarify controversial questions over church teachings and Catholic politicians, sources in Rome said. | | | Vatican sources said it was uncertain whether such a U.S.-Vatican consultation would be possible before the bishops meet in Denver. | | | The source said that in light of recent statements by various U.S. bishops the Vatican felt that "a concerted and nuanced approach is needed" on the question of Communion and dissenting politicians. |

| | Commonweal: 1054 & ALL THAT : Look to the undivided church |
| | If it be accepted that Vatican I was a local council of the Western church, the declaration that "the bishop of Rome possesses a true episcopal power of jurisdiction, ordinary and immediate, over the totality of the pastors and faithful" would maintain its validity for the Western church. | | | One way to move beyond the current stalemate in our efforts toward Christian unity is to take the state of the undivided church, before 1054, as a point of reference. | | | What Gasser is describing here is, in fact, the practice of the undivided church of the first millennium. |

| | For a community of the faithful to be called a Church, and indeed to truly be a Church, it cannot be guided according to political criteria or those of human organisations. | | | This is especially true of Bishops15 whose task it is to promote and ensure observance of the universal discipline of the Church founded on certain doctrinal principles already clearly enunciated by the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council16 and by the Pontifical Magisterium17 thereafter. | | | Every particular Church owes its guidance to Christ since it was He who fundamentally linked apostolic mission to the Church and hence no community has the power to grant that mission to itself40 or to delegate it. |

| | The Legal Relation Between the Holy See and Vatican City State - Richard W. Gant, S.T.D. |
| | The purpose of the creation of the Vatican City State would be service to the Holy See in its spiritual mission to the world. | | | It was a question of convincing the Vatican that the United Nations Secretary General attached the highest importance to the Holy See's participation in the Conference, as this participation seemed to him to offer irrefutable proof of the purely peaceful aims of the undertaking. | | | We have seen that the legal personality of the Holy See as supreme organ of the government of the Catholic Church is a limited personality--limited to her spiritual mission in the world. |

| | Strong language was also used to criticise attempts to give common-law marriages legal equality with traditional marriages. | | | The Vatican document states: "In today's open and democratic societies, the state and the public authorities must not institutionalise de facto unions, thereby giving them a status similar to marriage and the family, nor much less make them equivalent to the family based on marriage. | | | In a 76-page document written by its department on family matters, the Vatican said that moves to legitimise heterosexual common-law unions were wrong but doing so for homosexual unions was "much more grave." |

| | The content material of this article is that Pope John Paul even in his weakened state is still to many a very powerful figure and is needed greatly as far as the politics of the Vatican city and the Roman Catholic church are concerned, but the deterioration of his health is also very disheartening. | | | If I were going to look farther into the Pope's condition or the impacts he's had I might check out the Vatican City website, look at archived news articles about the Pope, do a google for a biography of Poe John Paul's life, or see what kind of material I could find in the library. |
