I agree with you that those things could happen.


The rest is a personal opinion about what I would like to see from a pope.

I think I said leader of not president of. That said the Pope is the absolute monarch and leader of the sovereign entity/ state. So my question expanded is he being the leader of sovereign state / absolute monarch have that position a bit different than what another person would have in voting rights? For all those people in the same short bus as Cajun Tiger maybe an actual opinion would make sense

I’m sorry but you can’t have it both ways.

Yeah Catholics are right and everyone else is heathens.


Or maybe everyone just has their own path to God and none are right or wrong.

Except Mormons and Baptists. I don't trust people who can't drink.

It’s not “one vote”. He is the pope. His vote is God’s vote. He cannot be wrong.

He can be wrong about anything other than an ex cathedra pronouncement.

Francis didn't think it was a good idea to decriminalize drugs. In reality the War on Drugs does a lot of harm in its own right and could arguably be causing more problems than the drugs themselves.

The best practice would be the traditional one of renouncing all other citizenships once you become the Pope and a Vatican citizen.


The Vatican as an entity has only existed since 1929, and even then, popes were exclusively Italian for another 50 years.

He is more than a citizen of the Vatican City. He is the absolute monarch of a sovereign state.

And?

The pope can vote just like I, as a non-catholic, can partake of the sacraments at mass.
