Pope on last legs.

Sad day. Sad day, indeed. Being a fellow Pole, it's terrible.

at first i thought you said "Being a fellow Pope"

Yeah, that's what I thought too. Had to read it a couple times to make sure.

Me too. I usually read quickly and tend to screw stuff like that on the first read-through.

I was just about to comment on what Nisgard said, but I'm not gonna start. For one thing, I don't want this thread to be closed.

Also, Nisgard, no politics or religion.

That, and I disagree with a lot of what he's saying.

Edit: Thanks a lot, Morrus! You're my kinda guy!

good call mojo.

Thanks. Common sense-oriented rants are one thing, but vilifying (almost vindictive, even) ravings are another.

Um.. you do see the irony here, right? the POPE is automatically about both politics AND religion. You can't publically idolize him, and then hide behind the "no politics/religion" rule here at enworld to bash those who were less then thrilled with his pontificate.

Either this thread as a whole shouldn't exist on here, or those who have very real and honest issues with the pope should get to have a say without being censored. Its one thing to just spew profanities, but if this is a real eulogy thread, and not just a "blank cheque thread" for the catholic propagandists, then i should be allowed to point out some of the man's flaws.

Some small leeway was allowed in this thread, yes. You overstepped those bounds by a mile. I've rarely seen a political or religious rant of that magnitude on EN World.

I even let you get away with it by merely removing the rant, rather than removing you. You then immediately followed it up by breaking yet another of the clear rules - disputes with moderators stay in emails, not in public. Enjoy a month's holiday from EN World - I have no time or interest in double checking all your posts.

From the SRD Resurrection Spell

In addition, the subject’s soul must be free and willing to return. If the subject’s soul is not willing to return, the spell does not work; therefore, subjects who want to return receive no saving throw.

Hmmmmm. Now if one of the Cardinals could cast Resurrection on John Paul II, I wonder if he'd want to return?
