RIP. He had the right rhetoric about social issues, but probably didn’t have the power to reform the church. Worse, I hope the next pope won’t be even worse, I’m sure they also have their “MAGA” wing.

Vance visits him then this ?!

Its the way of life, rest in peace.
Hopefully his last memory was not Vance.

As if we needed more proof that MAGA is a disease. Vance meets him and a day or two later the man dies.

Man died of second hand embarrassment after the Vance visit…

JD Vance killed him
Adventurous-Host8062 on
He tried. You have to give him that.

Yesterday, he meets JD Vance, today he is dead… coincidence? I think not.

What did Vance do?!

JD Vance was too much for him to handle—the last straw.

JD Vance poisoned him!… I guess.. most likely..

Judging by the world becoming more right wing his succesor is probably Frollo or something

RIP.
His speech yesterday (he dictated it I guess) was very very political, not on the usual level, felt like a finally “all out” for me.
RIP. Time for another conclave, lucky that movie taught everyone what it is, I guess.

I am not a devote Catholic, but this man had my respect. May he rest in peace.

Rip, I loved him as High Sparrow

Made it to Easter.
Reminds me of those people who die right after their kid’s marriage or firstborn etc. Might’ve just had the strength to reach that event and that was all.
I think we can be better than making Vance jokes.

Is JD the anti-christ?

Get ready for the global far right to bribe their way to the Conclave to elect a hateful conservative as the next Pope now.

RIP. I liked him, and as a pagan that’s really saying something.

Hopefully the next one will know who invaded Ukraine.

Easter Monday, Rome’s birthday, All the churches’ bells are ringing in the city.
I am no catholic but we lose a good man, a kind guide for more than a billion people that pushed the church to become more accepting even if just a little bit
I remember as a teen running to the square when he was elected to see the magical white smoke
He greeted us with a simple “Buonasera” and now it’s our turn to say arrivederci

The amount of childish callousness in these comments is an accurate reflection of Reddit and society as a whole. It makes me wonder however whether it isn’t just feigned immaturity masking feelings of anxiety in the face of a relatively wholesome (albeit imperfect) person passing in the midst of so many downright disgusting world “leaders”.
Everyone likes to laugh about popes dying but I think it’s a collective coping mechanism. Anyways, as far as popes go, he was actually a glimpse at the model for what the position actually could and should be: a focus of hope, peace, and universal love. requiescat in pace

He wanted to live to deliver his last urbi et orbi on Easter, he had a great and strong will. May he rest in peace with God
