[QUOTE="the_noob, post: 851112, member: 560074"] Wow, I was just reading that article about the 112th pope thing, and started thinking a little. I mean, they got the name right, but then again the Pope may have chosen that name [I]because[/I] of the prophecy--and then it said he was black and I was like wtf, lol. And to ghettoboy, I don't think you understand exactly what the Pope's job is. I believe, according to theology, that every new Pope is the successor to Peter. Therefore, Benedict XVI is not taking the role of JPII, but the role of Peter. The Pope is believed to be infallable. Just as Jesus was both human [I]and[/I] divine, so is the Church. Therefore, the Pope is a necessary leader of the Church. Think of it more as whenever you go to class. When you are in school, everyone in the class does not lecture each other, do they? That would cause chaos. Rather, there is a teacher whose sole purpose is to guide the students. my .o2 [/QUOTE]
