The Catholic Church’s leadership is keeping up to date with information and communications technology.
Last week, “Benedict XVI became the first Pope to utilize the technology of SMS texting services to broadcast a papal message.”
Then the Cardinal who heads the Vatican’s office on saints denounced the practicing of selling their bones on eBay.
But the church hasn’t given up on old media yet. This Sunday, the Vatican’s Secretary of State and number two official will celebrate a special Mass in Assisi observing the 50th anniversary of Saint Clare as the patron saint of television.
