Well, there are no freaks, only holy men there. So there's no racism or anything like that going on there.

Race usually refers to place or group of people one is born into. I doubt if any of the current inhabitants of the Vatican were actually born there. Catholicism is a religion not a race so call a Catholic na,es would better be defined as bigotry than racism.

The Vatican is not part of any other country for the same reason that D.C. is not part of any state - it's more diplomatic to assign it it's own status than to show favoritism by placing it within any other state's boundaries. And while it's possible that not every Vaticanite is Catholic, I think it'd be truth and not rascism to say that nearly all of them are.

Racism is against the teachings of Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church:
Created in the image of the one God and equally endowed with rational souls, all men have the same nature and the same origin. Redeemed by the sacrifice of Christ, all are called to participate in the same divine beatitude: all therefore enjoy an equal dignity.
The equality of men rests essentially on their dignity as persons and the rights that flow from it:
Every form of social or cultural discrimination in fundamental personal rights on the grounds of sex, race, color, social conditions, language, or religion must be curbed and eradicated as incompatible with God's design.
With love in Christ.

the vatican is not a 'nation' it is a principality, a bit like the states in America. It is effectively a state in Italy.
