Way to go your Popeiness.

Emptying three boys of their blood in order to save the pope's life seems like sacrificing to me.

They were promised a ducat. Seems like they sold their lives.

Edit - And I don't care if you call ME a woman-hater or any other insult. I care when you insult whole cultures. Since you haven't retracted any of your statements, I'll keep having for you the contempt I save for xenophobes.

'His' as in 'my', or 'his' as in 'the pope's'? Perhaps I misunderstood you some...

We have different cultures, haven't we? Different culture makes it so interesting to discuss our different views. That doesn't mean that the vatican culture, your, or mine, is better or worse, only different.

Well, boys are boys... They were only 10 years of age.

When the pope gives orders, boys obey.
I don't think the boys knew their lives were in any dangers. What would they do with their 1 ducat each, I wonder?

Nothing was stated as to who made the promise. The statement seems to have the Pope in a coma at the time of the promise.

You seems to know more than we do. Please tell us more.

And two Very important lessons we're learned, albeit a tad late.

1. Drinking the blood of children doesn't help when dying,

2. children don't survive too well without said blood.

meh, they thought they could turn lead(i mean Pb, i am not sure if i spelled it right) into gold. and the earth was a flat plate in balance on the back of an infinite tower of turtles.
