Just more proof that the pope is just another human, nothing special.

“Just more proof that the pope is just another human, nothing special.”

Unfortunately, there have been plenty of popes in history who have done things that make your point.

Ummm, you meant "example", not "proof".

Even a cursory reading of medieval history regarding the popes shows that very few showed signs of divine inspiration (never mind divinity) unalloyed by mortal failings.

OTOH, a divinely inspired human can do a world of good from such a position of authority, and some have.

He is a doctrinaire left-winger trying to pretend to have a clue. No one should take his views seriously anymore.
