VATICAN IS THE CAPITAL OF HELL MAY VATICAN SINK DEEPLY INTO A SEA OF MOLTEN MAGMA!!! In World War III the Vatican will be incinerated, on a par with the cities of Europe, Russia, and America. Its ruins, then, more than famed ruins, will symbolize mankind's determination to make short work of all totalitarianisms. Prominent among these : certain most iniquitous ecclesiastical tyrannies which, in the name of religion, contributed so much to the destruction of contemporary Man. And, verily, the punishment meted to the Catholic Church will be singularly heavy, not only in Rome, but throughout the charred wasteland of an atomized world.
