Pope Frank has double pneumonia, will remain in hospital
[NYPOST] Pope Francis

...Argentine liberation theologist, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio. He was elected pope in 2013. Rather than setting up shop in Avignon, where he belongs, the first Jesuit Pope chose to reside in the Domus Sanctae Marthae guesthouse instead of the papal apartments. That was to show how humble he is. He is big on climate change, against consumerism, and in favor of throwing a blanket over homosexual activity within the clergy. He's not real sure about the Resurrection, about Christ's divinity, and a few other things that would have gotten him burned at the stake a few hundred years ago, but he's hot for a certain South American Earth Mother Goddess...
has developed pneumonia in both his lungs and will remain in the hospital as he battles the infection, according to reports.

The pontiff's condition is complicated by his advanced age; he turned 88 in December.

''Laboratory tests, chest X-ray, and the Holy Father's clinical condition continue to present a complex picture,'' the Vatican said in a statement.

He remains in good spirits, with a Vatican spokesperson saying he has been grateful for the world's prayers since he was first admitted to the hospital on Friday.

Francis spent last week battling a bout of bronchitis and went to the hospital after it worsened.

#2 The Pope is a gravely ill 88 year old man.

None of the Charlie Hebdo victims he thuggishly mocked 10 years ago, will ever be a gravely ill 88 year old man or woman.

#3 The Catholic Church has a lot of problems, some of which even Benedict wasn't able to address properly. But he certainly was the better Pope.

Will the Vatican go Politically further LEFT, or return to its once moral, godly agenda?

The Vatican sure could use another Pope John Paul II type.
