Does anyone here know what happened to pope Benedict?
He retired
Popes can retire?
A pope hasn't stepped down since him in over 600 years.
Also, there aren't any pictures of him within the past 7 months.
Yeah hes old
All popes are.
He retired because he was too old to do his job
What's his job?
No this guy was the oldest pope
Being a pope
Idk
Which requires him to do what exactly?
Idk
Pray
Live?
So...he's too old to pray and he stepped down from a position most popes die doing.
Make speeches
...ok then...
He can supposedly talk to god
The holy of holies!
So, he can talk to God...and no one else can?
Is he able to talk to God before or after he's selected?
How does that work exactly?
God should give him the winning lotto ticket
Can I pay him a certain amount of money to absolve me of my sins?
...or does the church not do that anymore?
I think they do
That wouldn't surprise me.
You can pay your local catholic church
So...people think that they can buy their way into heaven?
It's supposed to be a donation
That's what they call it...but what is it really?
Bribing God?
Not all sins can be forgiven
If your a cath
Unless of course you give the church a lot of money.
No not really
Can you give the church money to absolve yourself of corruption?
