Has the Pope given the world any great spiritual insight? Ever? What was it?

Answer 1

In 1992, the Catholic Pope implied that maybe Galileo was right. Does that count?

Answer 2

Considering the fact that the pope is just a man like you and me, the only "spiritual insight" he could provide would be what he could read in the Bible.

No man receives direct revelations from God other that what is written in God's word. God does NOT speak directly to people anymore.

Answer 3

If one follows the teachings of his religion, and one looks at the actions of the Popes over history.......

one can arrive at the insight of looking towards inner religion, and that organized religion's first motive is the organization, and not the spiritual aspects of the religion.

I don't think it was intentionally given however.

Answer 4

The predecessor of the current Pope was the first major cleric to acknowledge evolution as "more than a theory" which is a diplomatic way of accepting it as a fact.

Answer 5

The current Pope "Adolph" hasn't that's for sure. Can't we resurrect Pope John Paul II or something?

Answer 6

So, one of the popes said something like:
If you live in a poor country, you may use contraceptives.

Edit:
Which implies let the country your staying in pick up the tab.
That's so selfish.

Answer 8

Not that I have ever read

Answer 9

Make babies you can't feed.

Answer 10
