Z-Neo Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 He was the Pope for 26 years..geez...If you think about it, he was Pope longer than most people on these forums have even been alive. I'm not too much into religion or religious topics, but it's always sad to see such a figurehead of the world pass away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Jahovic Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 RIP So did they adopt him as a saint? I heard they were debating that BTW who gets the popemobile now?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Becoming a saint is an arduous process that takes years. Various miracles have to be attributed to a person in order for them to become a saint. People are just speculating right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rag Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 They were talking about how they can't count miracles for qualifying for sainthood. Like they wouldn't count how this lady testifyed that the pope cured her son's blood disease or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Jahovic Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 The Pope just died a few hours ago, nothing serious will happen with his sainthood for a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmvogel Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 I could care less...when I think of the Pope, it reminds me of the Church and all of its seedy history. I can't see how people can be Catholics. Miracles and making ppl saints...please. Just another bullshit religion like the rest. The only good news about this is now that he's dead he'll take up less news coverage. Just like Terry Schiavo. Now things will return to normal.
