I heard that CNN had something up for a short period of time confirming it

CNN news is saying the vatican is denying this.

I was just listening to CNN Headline news and nothing's been confirmed yet.

It seems as though he is still alive, but they expect him to die within a few hours.

And we need this here because..........?

...your kidding right?

Lighten up, usually the pope dieing is a fairly large deal.

Well to quote the forum rule

These topics tend to get quite heated so....

I think ti should be allowed. This isnt a general religious topics, as there is only like one pope every 50+ years and since John2 is like the most inspirational in a long time, hes a great asset not to those of his faith but everyone in the world for his push for peace. Im not a religious man but i respect him to the highest degree.

My friend goes to church, am i allowed to talk about her?

This has nothing to do with politics or religion. It's called staying current folks, lighten up.

Interesting. The pope has nothing to do with religion? Last I heard he was the head of the catholic church, but of course I could be wrong.

You know when You react the way You do to a friendly reminder of the forum rule which states that political and religious are prohibited You Yourself cause the heated debate that will get the topic locked.
