British deacon launches website to protect the Pope :: Catholic News Agency (CNA)

British deacon launches website to protect the Pope :: Catholic News Agency (CNA)

Lancaster, England, Jul 23, 2010 / 08:13 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- A new website has been created to defend Pope Benedict XVI from media attacks ahead of his arrival in Great Britain this coming September. The site aims to offer information to provide the Pope with protection using prayer, truth and law.

Protectthepope.com went live this month as a project of a permanent deacon of England's Diocese of Lancaster, Nick Donnelly, and his brother Stephen. Deacon Donnelly also writes for the Catholic Truth Society and the diocesan newspaper, The Catholic Voice of Lancaster.

The website, the deacon explained in the first entry from July 12, "has been developed in response to the unprecedented level of hostility and misinformation disseminated by the mainstream media and new media."
