~~~K ,,, The Pope, from his Bully Pulpit in The Vatican, preaches The Dogma of a Vengeful God to Billions of obeyant sheep living in constant Fear of Retribution,,, The Dalai Lama, from his exile in India, teaches about enlightenment via Knowledge and Understanding of The Self by freely living The Golden Rule, to only Millions. Therefore, the pope.

Hmmm. More intellectually influential? Dali Lama.
More celebrity status? The Pope.
The reason for that is that the Dali Lama actually has intelligent things to say. The Pope is to the Dali Lama as Paris Hilton is to Ted Koppel.

Pope is more influential as the Christian people in the world are large in number than the Chinese people. Pope is an international religious figure than Dalai Lama.

Dalai Lama is a better spiritual leader. The pope just sits there in his bullet proof car...

The Pope obviously. He has a car named after him.
Unless of course it was dyslexic Tibetans who designed Ladas.

The Pope simply because of the fact that he has more followers.

The Pope influences more people.
I'm not going to say whether or not I think that's a good thing.
