Pope Francis is heading towards eternity...

Hate to break it to you, but so was Jesus. Bitched about rich people constantly. Gave everyone free food and healthcare. You’d hate the guy if you ever met him.
Hate to break it to you, but Jesus isn’t around to give you free things. You’re going have to put away your Luigi and David Hogg blowup dolls and go out and get a job.

Jesus was anything but a Commie.

JESUS DEFENDED THE RIGHT TO FREELY CONTRACT AND PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS

Besides the Golden Rule which Jesus commanded as the ultimate social ethic, another Biblical account of Jesus’s teachings which clearly demonstrates His attitude toward the institution of private property and the free and voluntary trade thereof is given in His below Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard:
For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. Now when he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the marketplace, and said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.’ So they went. Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise. And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle, and said to them, ‘Why have you been standing here idle all day?’ They said to him, ‘Because no one hired us.’ He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right you will receive.’

So when evening had come, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward, ‘Call the laborers and give them their wages, beginning with the last to the first.’ And when those came who were hired about the eleventh hour, they each received a denarius. But when the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise received each a denarius. And when they had received it, they complained against the landowner, saying, ‘These last men have worked only one hour, and you made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the heat of the day.’ But he answered one of them and said, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius? Take what is yours and go your way. I wish to give to this last man the same as to you. Is it not lawful for me to do what I wish with my own things? Or is your eye evil because I am good?’ So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen."

It never ceases to amaze me when socialists sometimes try to claim that Jesus was some sort of proto-socialist or Communist. Anyone who is the least bit familiar with the socialists’ attitude toward such matters would know that the typical socialist response to such a landowner’s actions towards his workers would be to scream bloody murder! Of course, a socialist government’s response to such a land owner would be to exterminate him. Yet here Jesus reinforces the correctness of the libertarian creed on the absoluteness of lawfully being able to do what one wishes with their own possessions, as well as being able to freely and voluntarily contract said possessions as one sees fit—even if doing so greatly upsets others! So long as one has kept one’s word in the contracts in which one has agreed to—and so long as one’s actions pertain to their own property—then the right of the individual to make decisions concerning their property remains absolute!

If you are a believer, do you pray that the Pope doesn't pass on or do you pray that he can finally, gloriously, leave this life for something much better? Does it show that your "faith" is lacking if you are praying for his "life" on earth to continue?

Purgatory, more likely, which Mrs a envisions as being like a quiet living room at your aunts house, with reallyvdated furniture
The Good Place nails purgatory if you’ve never seen it I recommend you give it a watch. It’s a tight 4 seasons and actually has an ending that is quite satisfying.

Cardinals gather in the Vadican and elect a new pope. Takes a 2/3rds supermajority to be elected. They take a vote see how the votes come out then discuss, vote again, discuss til people start gravitating to one candidate.
It's basically like the Democratic caucuses in Iowa and Nevada. Similar ratio of perverts, even
 
The pain in your tootsies?

Lulz. Maybe you could ask god to actually make you a marine instead of a valor thief bitch boy! Chances of that happening are as good as you actually showing up to one of your internet "fights." Speaking of, you have to ignore more people like @Ghee Buttersnaps this week to keep your HROT safe space? Daddy is disappointed in you. What a bitch. Owned.

We both know. Owned.
 
Since the next Pope is likely to be more conservative, and since the Catholic church is an authoritarian institution, I think Trump should convert to Catholicism, so the new Pope can anoint him Holy Roman Emperor.

How cool would that be?!

I mean, let's face it, if you believe in God, it's a small step to believing in the divine right of rulers. So why not make it official.

Obviously the next Pope should be an American.

What an interesting interpretation you have of this parable. As I learned it this is about the grace of God being extended to everyone no matter when they become a believer. The last shall be first and all that.

It also speaks to the notion that we should not be jealous of gifts others receive. If anything, it says not to be envious of those receiving more than you think they deserve even when they don’t work as hard as you do (like for instance…people getting handouts).

For the avoidance of doubt I believe capitalism is the best economic model we have. But I don’t pretend that Jesus was a capitalist…he wasn’t.
