Ages ago - I was visiting Rome with my wife and we were doing the usual touristi circuit and went to see the catacombs. There were certain set times for tour guides and when we went there a German speaking guide had just left with a group and a Norwegian speaking guide was about to leave. We waited for the English speaking guide and to our surprise it was a typical Kerala Christian girl complete with skirt that started with belt below the breasts and ended just below the knees. Apart from that she had a complete and unbelievably rich Malayalam accent to her English which was amusing to us, but seemed to have no effect whatsoever on the motley group of goras who were with us on the tour.
The Vatican of course, the clever politicians that they are - see no problem with this sort of thing and allow Catholics with all sorts of accents to serve the massa Pope.
