No. According to prophecy, Pope BXVI will flee Rome and die in exile. A pretender will claim the papal throne and many will accept him as pope but he will not be a valid pope. The Church will be without a pope for a period anywhere from 2-4 years. The Church and the world will undergo a severe chastisement where 3/4 of the population dies. The remaining bishops will gather to elect a valid pope, our last, who will rule about 40 years until antichrist appears. Then it's game over.
What we are about to undergo is a severe chastisement in the end times, but it is not THE end of time.
Wow, what a pile of feces.
lemme guess...an”insider”...sounds like an American propagandist trying to lick somebody’s boots in the Obama administration....
Judas could have provided similar quotes about Jesus.
The Pope needs a Teleprompter named TOTV
The pope knows exactly what he is doing. He makes great decisions. He is awesome.
Well, since the Almighty is supposed to guide the heart of the Pope, either this "unnamed source" doesn't believe in the word of God, or he doesn't believe that the Pope is guided by God. Either way, he's apparently demonstrating that he doesn't believe at all in the Papal tradition... rather curious for one supposedly in the Vatican for 20+ years.
(I smell a reporter with a penchant for creating quotes.)
“Vatican insiders” are akin to career State Department bureaucrats.
Pope Benedict is causing angst among the “politically correct” Vatican politicians, not among the Faithful. He speaks from his heart and his huge intellect.
These ‘insiders’ remind me of people who worked in the Bush White House and then turned on him.
LOL! “Vatican insiders”, huh? Are they kind of like the ‘sources close to the Administration’ who kept giving negative info to the MSM about President Bush?
Reminds me of that Fatima prophecy about the Holy Father being attacked by a primitive army...which no longer seems so impossible :(
right.....God knows who they are.
I’d say the moronic insiders are full of crap
Maybe the Pope should hire David Axelrod to do a “Hopey/Popey/Changey campaign. There fixed it.
I think you are trying to recall St. Malachy.
I can think of a few Catholics who should get the boot..we can start with Kennedy, Princess Pelosi, Kerry...just to get things rolling...
Well, dang he’s right! He said, “Aids cannot be overcome through the distribution of condoms, which even aggravates the problems.” True.
No. He is the Holy Father and the leader of my Church.
I’m sure it’s a real liberal....probably part of the lavender mafia.
