Pardon me if this is offensive to you, but the work that the Vatican does for the preservation and promotion of Latin is probably the only reason I don't want to see the Vatican City absorbed into Italy and all the Catholic Church made a thing of the past.


I don't understand why people want Italy to anex the Vatican, it's been a free country for 1700 years.

Because the church basiclly stole rome after the empire was pushed out of the west, if you want to compleate the former province of italia you would need all of italy

If you want to go into medicine, you volunteer at a hospital. Ask your counselor about it more specifically. I'm an adult so I'm eligible to volunteer for more things than you are, and I'm not sure how many of them are things you have to be >18 for.

Dumb pedestrians and almost backing up into someone's mailbox made up most of my troubles, and I ended up fine, although Dad had to take the wheel to keep me from hitting the mailbox. I've improved a lot from yesterday, though.
