"Pope John Paul II has been given the last rites of the Roman Catholic Church as his health deteriorates, a Vatican source tells CNN." |

Pope John Paul Given 'Last Rites' -Media Reports VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope John Paul, whose health deteriorated suddenly on Thursday, has received the Roman Catholic sacrament reserved for the sick and dying, Italian media reported. A Vatican spokesman said he could not confirm the reports but Church sources said it was likely the Pontiff had received the sacrament, given the precarious state of his health. The sacrament, which involves anointing the sick person with special oils, was once called "Last Rites" or "Extreme Unction." It is now known as the Sacrament of the Infirm. The last time the Pope was known to have received the sacrament was on May 13, 1981, the day he was shot and nearly killed in an assassination attempt in St Peter's Square. That time the sacrament was administered by his long-time Polish priest-secretary, Archbishop Stanislaw Dziwisz. AGI news agency quoted an unnamed cardinal as saying the Pope was administered the sacrament earlier in the day and that he was in a "very serious" condition. The Vatican said in a statement that Pope John Paul was suffering from a very high fever caused by a urinary infection |

it just struck me - we'll have to deal with weeks of coverage of the funeral, mourning and inauguration of a new pope on the news now when he dies. shitehawk. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
harsh. and far too an easy target for a cheap laugh. i admire his courage and believes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes he dedicated his life to living in luxurious opulance whilst dictating how people should live their lives. He deserves better than to have a bunch of low life message board scum taking pot shots at him. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
courage has nothing to do with it - the only reason he is still pope is that the the catholic church makes no provision for what to do when a pope falls into his state, because the advent of modern science and medicine is so recent. he may as well be in a coma. he's a mere figurehead. he's just being forced to remain pope, in this condition, until he dies. courage has nothing to do with it. neither do his "believes".... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I dont understand why he has to be pope till he dies anyway i dont care |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wrong on both accounts. clearly a dying man must have courage to carry on his life long beliefs despite ilness. and the catholic church have strict rules as to what happens if a pope falls ill - they carry on until death. why to do think he's doing what he is? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you don't care, shut the fuck up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
exactly why i stated - because he's forced to. also, why would a dying POPE - it's different to any old dying joe - renounce his faith before he dies? what are you on about? how does it take courage for a pope to carry on his LIFE-LONG beliefs despite illness? you make no sense. also, don't tell nacmat to shut the fuck up, as far as i know, he's italian, and i think his contribution is therefore very interesting |

I think i'm with dobbin on this one to be honest. I'm so far from traditional catholic beliefs it's untrue, but it is a bit cruel to laugh at a dude in his 80s dying of a urinary infection. I mean, the whole doctrine has some fucking weird ideas (african AIDS epidemic, cough cough), but yeah, i dunno. I think it's pretty shit to laugh at someone in that condition. I feel quite sorry for him. On one hand, i'd be saying "imagine if that was your granddad", but with the influence the shit he spouts has... so yeah, i dunno. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm certainly not laughing. i just want it to be over, for the same reasons as the terri thing: because being forced to leave the earth in such an undignified way ( in this case being paraded in front of the public, unable to talk or move) is very sad. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, pretty much... the whole thing is a bit harsh really. If i knew i was a gonner, i don't think i'd want to spend my time staggering out onto balconies and waving shakily to a load of pilgrims. Give that man some pies and whisky, let him die happy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll put a dollar on him dying between 7pm and 8pm tonight. Does anyone else want to buy an hour? |
||||||||
|

no-one is forcing anything, i don't think. so far as the whole concept of religion in partucular catholicism (in particular northerm ireland) continues to colapse, we will all learn from these ridiculous hangovers from the past and hopefully create a better future. religion is a dying breed (no pun intended). intelligence, self awareness and knowledge of history is the only way forward. there is no point in mocking other peoples beliefs but re-education, even in a small scale such as this, is a small but important step forward. everything hapens for a reason. read some satre, read the bible, read the daily mail. see whats happeningm see why its happening, and let great britain lead the world. wow, im awesome :) michael howard, kill yourself now. |

I wont shut up but I will fuck a little tonight |

religion is a bag of lies catholic religion one of the biggest lies of all (virgin mary? right) this pope was shit but still he deserves some rest |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Isn't it ironic that the part of his body* that he never fully utilised will probably kill him! *his "old man", "trouser snake", "purple headed womb ferret", "widge" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I am sure he used it, at least with the hand, and thats a use .... ask monoid |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How was this pope shit? Thats a bit ignorant wouldnt you say? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
As the head representative of a system espousing some of the most ridiculous (and fucking lethal, african AIDS epidemic, cough cough) beliefs possible, i'd say it's fair enough to say he was shit. Although i don't think there's much point blaming one extremely ill guy for the failings of an entire belief system. I can't really see where ignorance comes into the equation. |

A giant robot pope wouldn't be shit. If the next pope is a giant robot I will become catholic |
||||||||
|

i too cast my vote for robopope. |

believe me I know more of this pope that you can imagine I was raised in a very catholic enviroment and I went to a catholic school for 12 years too I ve studied lot of religion and afterwards in university I studied a lot by myself this pope has been very conservative... and has caused the slownes of church to admitt birth control...w hich has caused lots of deads due to aids in third world only to mention a hting |

They could use the flesh of the old one to make an anamatronic one with lazer eyes and a jet pack and great big robot arms and a great big club that hangs out of his chest that can crush tanks |

OK thats cool. I just like to see people elaborate on things sometimes and especially here. I respect your opinion. :) I myself really dont have one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you know, when he dies, one of his servants has to hit his head with a special hammer to check that he is really dead |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, I forgot to say it was only my opinion. sorry if I was too harsh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
UPDATE: they are not doing the hammer check anymore |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Actually i heard that too. Talk about bizarre. Why not have a doc proclaim hes dead instead of hammering the guy? :D That just seems absurd! --- nacho: No i guess it wasnt harsh I kind of jumped on that. Sorry for saying ignorant! :) |

You are too quick for me good sir! |

Sweet hot shit, and i thought you were joking! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've said it before and I'll say it again. I feel sorry for the bloke. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i always thought this pope was fairly decent... i mean obviously he's gonna have some ridiculous views, but he's made a number of acknowledgements in the last few years (ie: bible=maybe a metaphor, evolution not such a bad idea) that are pretty important steps forward for the catholic belief system... it's entirely possible that the next one could be much worse... |
