    I get what you’re saying, but this is a strawman argument.

    Nobody claims that the pope gets special treatment, or is immune from health problems. Every pope dies and every pope is replaced, that’s the whole point.

    There’s plenty to criticize about the church, no need to make up fake claims.

      Idk man, when a pope gets cancer that sounds like a bad omen.

      And then accepting modern treatments? That shows a lack of faith. God wouldn’t have given you cancer if he wanted you to get rid of it.
