May God keep the pope's soul at His side. He was the best pope we had in a long while.

He's lucky nobody decided to keep him alive by any method avaiable. I really hope people learn to respect life AND death, since death is just one more aspect of a live.
We should learn where is the border between sustaining a life and prolonging the process of dying.
May he rest in peace and keep working for our humble humanity over there.

Heh, the Vatican would have if his last words weren't "I leave my life in the hands of Virgin Mary."

In Christianity death is supposed to be celebrated or embraced in a way, since its considered to be finally meeting God. I understand how some people can get emotional over losing someone close, but I think they should be more accepting of death. It is inevitable after all. The whole Terry Schiavo thing was a good example. Her parents really wanted to believe she could come back and understandably so, but as Christians they should probably be a little less afraid of death and a little more willing to accept it.

How many lives has the starving kid influenced?


Personally, I remain indifferent about either.

Well, I mean.. he's just the pope. Why would countries put him in the media?

[CommunistBus]

Because he's a significant leader know all over the world?
