Santo Domingo.- Minutes after being announced the decree designating the first lady Candida Montilla as the person who will lead the mission to represent the country at Pope Francis I's inauguration, vice president Margarita Cedeño said the protocol prevented her from attending Benedict's enthronement, when she was the first lady.
"I remember that as first lady I could not attend the ceremony because it was only for presidents and vice presidents," she said via Twitter.
In another tweet, the vice president thanked God that "two disciples of Don Juan (Juan Bosch) had the chance of enthroning two popes in this century."
Her comments have drawn even more criticism in social networks with the following tweet: "But I give infinite thanks to God for the State Protocol that allowed me to go to the funeral ceremony for our beloved John Paul II."

What a stupid comment by the VP!
Why would she feel obligated to come out with such a statement, which is dictated by protocol?
Could she possibly have believed that she is so beloved by the Dominican nation and is so cultured that she would have naturally been expected to attend this event?
For me, I'd much rather see our president and his beautiful and respectable and dignified first lady represent our country at such an important event, where he would inevitably have had the opportunity to rub elbows with other dignitaries. Question is: why is our president forsaking this unique opportunity afforded by protocol, which is likely to never arise again during his term in high office?
President Danilo, please re-think your position and represent us well at this international and somewhat important affair. Please do not let LF attend, even if you must remove his passport temporarily. The thought of seeing his ugly mug one more time nauseates me.

The Vatican did not save Jews. It was done by a renegade Catholic priest against the policy of the Vatican. Without the Vatican's support, Hitler could not have gained the numbers to achieve his dictatorship though the Enabling Act, when the Vatican pulled the rug from under the German Catholic Party and passed their support to the Nazis. Without Hitler's Pope, there would not have been WW2 or the Holocaust.

Trujillo gave away German,Austrian Jews visas to come to DR then as bridge to USA,Canada? The proof is there in Sosua PP I know what the historians will tell you "USA" did not want to get involved in the war,nevertheless were supplying England with goods and war materiel as they call it" lend lease act" of over 1000 military as well as cargo ships loaded from USA goods via England thru US Merchant Marine" If you are helping my enemy you must be my enemy too"

Perception,
Christianity was introduced to Rome long before Constantine. However he ordered the 1st Council of Nicea in 325 where the Bible was compiled (from a range of mythological writings from unknown authors), as part of his attempt to standardize all the various versions of Christianity throughout his Roman Empire, so they could concentrate on fighting the enemies of the empire and not each other.
Yes in the Edict of Milan in 313 he ordered tolerance of all religions, however it didn't have much effect, since every religion, and sub-religion, claims to know the only true god.
