Cornbread Brent @cornbreadbrent - This is an excellent and satisfactory explanation.
Why can’t the Holy See explain things the way Fr. Krupp explains them?
Quote
Fr. Joseph Krupp @Joeinblack
I’m gonna try to do this as quick as possible in the knowledge that some people just need to be offended and indignant.
The Vatican library is a building within Vatican City.
You simply would not believe the incredible things in there.
The world’s smallest Quran and the world’s largest Quran are in there. One of the only books of Muslim poetry that survived the Mongol invasion are in there.
To get in is a very involved process, only between two and 3000 humans a year are allowed in.
Going in and out of the library, even after having been accepted is quite the process. They do this to protect the building and the things in it. Many parts of the Vatican library are sealed because even air can corrupt these texts.
Muslim scholars have gone there to study for a very long time.
Devout Muslims scholars are required to pray five times a day at fairly specific times.
Each time, they would need to leave & go through all of the process of departing the building to do the 5 to 7 minute prayer that they are required to do and then go through the process of re-entering.
The process for getting in and out is longer than the prayer time their faith requires them to have
At some point, someone opened a small room and told them they could pray in there.
It is basic good hospitality.
I’m going to be blunt here: many of you have absolutely no idea of what you’re talking about. 
People have got you all fired up and jacked up over something because neither they nor you understand what the Vatican Library is or how it works.
Stop it.
Focus on your own sin; I can assure you you have plenty if you’re anything like me. You should fight that battle because at least in that case, you will have some sense of what you’re talking about.

Curtis Sliwa @CurtisSliwa - I was the clear winner tonight. Cuomo bombed it. 
He should drop out and let me take on Zohran Mamdani one on one, and I’ll beat him for New Yorkers.
