The proposal was made by Father Antonio Spadaro and will be illustrated in the next edition of the Journal of the congregation Civilta Cattolica, which is being examined by the Vatican for approval. For the priest, " no room for God in virtual reality . In Second Life there are groups and places of religious and spiritual." According to the Jesuit, that world, which is accessed through the Internet, is a "land of mission." "The spiritual spaces have been expanded and some feel the need to establish places of worship, convents and and monasteries to meditate, "he said.
The idea was launched after confirming that the phenomenon is spreading, especially among young people." There are certainly positive and negative things in Second Life, but we believe it is fair Catholics to present there, "said Spadaro.
The proposal of the Jesuits is well regarded in the Vatican, which considers the creation of a" missionary surfer "a challenge for the Church itself." The idea of \u200b\u200bthe Jesuits is a real challenge
"said Archbishop Claudio Maria Celli, head of media organs of the Vatican. "The truth is that the Earth can be considered virtual Earth mission. Second Life is a place that must not abandon and any initiative to relieve the inhabitants should be favored," he said Spadaro.
