Baby kissed by pope recovers from brain tumor

The story implies that the pope had something to do with the recovery. Atheistic medical science had nothing to do with it.

Re: Baby kissed by pope recovers from brain tumor

If the Pope can do this, just think what every 18-year old Mormon priesthold holder can do! Aren't they told something to the effect that they have more power in their little fingers than all the power the Pope claims to have?

It’s far more likely that the baby recovered from being kissed by the pope. (n/t)

I am sure the Pope didn’t discourage the parents from pursuing the best medical care they could find.

Re: Baby kissed by pope recovers from brain tumor

The Pope was some variety of scientist himself - I forget which - before getting into the Shoes of the Fisherman, so I'm sure he would have encouraged every possible kind of medical treatment. But getting a kiss from the Pope would be, for believers, just covering another base. I'm happy for that little girl, and hope that she thrives.

...yes. In his previous position as a bar bouncer in Argentina, he practiced the science of dealing with drunks, deviants, and deadbeats. Probably kicked back a few shooters as well...

Or maybe it's that the baby recovered DESPITE being kissed by the pope.

Kisses spread germs. Medical science spreads hope. (n/t)
