He may be the first Pope to burn in Hell.

Hate to say this, but he may not be the first.

On the day that died Pope innocent III (who was evidently not very innocent) appeared to Saint Lutgarda in flames and told her that he was expiating three crimes that he had repented by sill had to make atonement for. He begged her and her fellow nuns for prayers, because otherwise, he said, he would have to stay in purgatory until the end of time.

If Innocent III was facing purgatory until "the end of time" (which is not "forever," mind you, because time does have an end)--- and he was by no means the worst of popes --- then some of those who were just as bad and did NOT repent, would have been facing eternal hellfire.

Not naming any names. But there may be popes in hell.

“repented by sill” = “repented but still”

Is that auto-correct or auto-%$@%#%$??
