Does the Pope get a better "Heaven" than the rest of us?

nunestary/orpanage where nuns forced young girls to eat their own vomit and feaces. It is EVERYWHERE.. but if you want to stay in denial that is your perogative.

Id love to see your source on that. That sounds a bit much....

Funny how the church prefers cash payouts rather than proving innocence.. so you assume all these people are lieing? No wonder they rarely report it.

Um no, like I said..I think alot of people are now coming out because of money, NOT ALL of them. Wheres theres smoke you can usually find a fire, doesnt mean its a raging inferno.

Wow. I guess I must have got a bit confused by the title of this thread.

Yes, the title is DOES the pope get a better heaven. A question. Get it straight before you start a condesending reply. Also, try reading the entire post, before you roll your eyes.

What.. compared to priests sodomising young boys? There was an extensive piece about it on 60 minutes a while ago- girls who couldn't eat their meals that actually had bugs etc. in it were forced to re-eat it for being ungrateful. As punnishments girls used to have to walk around with [used] excrement buckets on their heads. This happened apx in the 1950/60s. If you want more info google it. There a thousands of websites related to clergy and child abuse.. especially in orpanages. It's not just a 'handful' of victims.
Here is a piece about the pope's apology [and proof that its not just in america:

Pope offers apology for sex abuse
23 countries report incidents by priests

Rome -- Pope John Paul II offered an apology yesterday for sexual abuse by Roman Catholic clergy, saying it had caused the victims "great suffering and spiritual harm" and had damaged the church.

I answered 'no'..: to qualify for heaven you must be a moral person.. I then gave some examples of some immoral actions of the pope and how they would mean he is not more likely to qualify for a 'better' heaven than anyone else.

Well, with the passing of the pope this week, I got to thinking about heaven. I wondered if heaven has levels. I mean, does the Pope get a better version of heaven, since he was the Pope? Does he get a better version, than say, some schmo who just barely made it in?

I'm with UFOria here. And he spells it UFORIA because it starts with UFO you maroon. But anyhoo.... There are not different levels in heaven. We have different levels on Earth. Heaven might as well be Earth if there are different levels. Heaven is the same for everyone. And how does some shmoe just barely get in?? Everyone gets in.
