RIP Pope Francis Discussion Mega-Thread

[Philthy_Phil]

Who was the best Pope in your personal opinion?

Best pope? lol

I don't rank pedophiles, they're all the same.

 

[Lance_Castro]

The one who appeased the nazis must be right up there….most are just childfuckers.

Probably John XXIII, because he called the Second Vatican Council, which allowed the church to shed a whole lot of medieval shit.

Wasn't Pope John XXIII the one, who got embalmed recently?

I guess the OP has given up on his failed thread, so I'll try to help.

He died in 1963. It would be kinda pointless to embalm him now.

VATICAN CITY, Feb 26 (Reuters) - Pope Francis has shown a "further, slight improvement" in his medical condition, the Vatican said on Wednesday, in a sign of progress as the 88-year-old pontiff battles double pneumonia.

There is no such thing as "double pneumonia" -- the phrase is base on a misunderstanding of "pleural pneumonia" -- that's "pleural," not "plural."

I wonder if he's had the Last Rites yet?

Of course, they don't call it that any more. Too discouraging.

DOCTOR: We've done all we can, Tom -- it's up to you now! You have to want to live! You have to believe you can live! Oh, and the priest is here to give you the Last Rites!

It's now called "Sacrament of the Sick."

I thought double pneumonia is when pneumonia presents in both lungs rather than a single one?

 

[Lance_Castro]

God should take Butters instead!

 

[RoryN]

Pope back on ventilator...

Maybe god can take them both!

oann?

That aside, I don't see what it has to do with my query.

Praying that Pope Francis survives this health crisis.

Duplicate. This is exactly what I posted directly above you.

 

[RoryN]

The Pope will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow.

This thread was a dud from the start because the author never updated it - now its failure is complete.

 

[73Seahawks]

Happy to see Pope Francis has survived this health crisis and heading back to the Vatican.

 

[73Seahawks]

UPDATE: Pope Francis passed away this morning at the age of 88.
