Vatican

The guy named "think" really isn't thinking at all. Why is the Catholic religion regarded as (hint-->)ROMAN Catholicism. Because it was founded in ROME, and when the Christians took over, the Romans simply adopted the New religion and renamed the gods and goddesses to saints and Mary Mother of God according to their tradition.
Although Rome is long dead, or so the history books say, this "Ayb" guy has some sort of point, since Catholicism does have some elements of ancient Roman culture.

Vatican Cameos

'Vatican Cameos' is a phrase used in BBC's Sherlock when Sherlock is about to open Irene Adler's safe. The phrase first originated in World War 2. It was used when a non-military person, who was armed (gun or knife) entered a British military base. The phrase was a signal for everyone duck out of the line of fire. Sherlock knew that John, being a military man, would recognise this phrase and duck out of the way of the gun in the safe. It is not a code phrase which Sherlock and John coordinated as a safe word. Very clever, don't you think?

It is a pretty obscene sex move. It's kind of up there with like, the Cleveland Steamer, the Jersey Turnpike, the Chicago Fire, the North Dakota Plains Walker, and of course the New England coral bleach.

Vatican Roulette

Another name for the rhythm method of birth control.

Called so because it is the only form of contraception endorsed by the Catholic Church.
Well, the Pope says condoms are out, and the pill is born of the fires of Hell. So get out the calendar, baby, it's time for Vatican roulette.
