Flaming Pope Picture of John Paul II Is Seen as Blessing from Beyond the Grave.

Aa fire picture captured in a bonfire in Poland has the Catholic world transfixed. Many believe it's Pope John Paul II offering a blessing from beyond the grave.

The Telegraph reports: "Dressed in robes, slightly hunched and his right hand raised in blessing, the image appeared during a ceremony to mark the second anniversary of the pontiff's death. The photograph has since been shown repeatedly on Italian television, and a religious website displaying the image crashed as thousands logged on to see it for themselves. The bonfire was lit during a service on April 2, at Beskid Zywiecki - near the Holy Father's birthplace in Wadowice, southern Poland."

Said the photographer: "It was only afterwards when I got home and looked at the pictures that I realised I had something. I showed them to my brother and sister and they, like me, were convinced the flames had formed the image of Pope John Paul II. There is a tongue of flame to one side which resembles his right arm raised as if giving a blessing. I was so happy with the picture that I showed it to our local bishop who said that Pope John Paul had made many pilgrimages during his life and he was still making them in death."

Of course, (and I'm sure I'll be flamed for this, so to speak) what nobody's really discussing is why the Pope chose the hellfires of Satan as his medium. - Source: Reprinted from Toleroad.com

Believing in nonsense like this has made modern Christianity a complete joke. I can’t even take the Roman Catholic Church seriously anymore, as they continue to drift further away from their traditional roots and any profound wisdom. John Paul would be incapable of “blessing us from beyond the grave”, since every pope after World War II are unauthentic and have only weakened Catholicism.

This is merely the opinion of a few faithful, it has not been deemed as an authentic miracle, nor has the Church even expressed an opinion that it may be authentic.

I support a Holy Inquisition, as un-Holy as it might be.

The SSPV are heretics. That said however, the SSPX needs to join the Church where it can have a stronger influence.

This subforum was meant to cater to the sincere Christians among us. I urge our good friend Fenrisulfr to take this into account the next time he makes a post in this thread.

SSPX needs to join the Church where it can have a stronger influence ??? The SSPX are "in The church" as you say if by that you mean they recognize the present pope (as weak as he may be)

You're right, that was sloppy of me. Though, they would be taken more seriously by even conservative elements of the Church if they remedied their so called "imperfect" communion with the Church.

I'm one of the most "sincere" Catholics on this forum. Just because I don't buy into this pseudo-Christian, pro-Vatican II bonfire nonsense doesn't mean anything. John Paul II was one of the worst popes in the history of the Catholic Church, and it's a shame that we had to wait after his death, to see him engulfed in flames.
