Maybe it was for the asker..why would he choose my answer beats me? So why the disagree? Isn´t the Vatican the Holy See? Your disagree is way over board!

: Roberto: quiero que sepas que coincido con tus comentarios; a mí los kudoz no me van ni me vienen, esto es para ayudar a los colegas y aprender uno mismo; por cierto, como decía Borges" hay que traducir ideas y conceptos, no palabras". Saludos, Miguel.-

Gracias Miguel! Para mi como para muchos americanos es más comun "the Vatican" que The Holy See" (asi sea más exacto) tal vez por eso se escogió mi respuesta. Pero no veo como un Sr. que se precia de colega pone un "disagree" , la ignorancia es atrevida!
