LOL some of you guys are taking this playful subject so literally:
But if we are going to then:
I don't know if you guys know, but I am a christian. And part of my story was that I was catholic from birth-16, then christian since probably 17.
In that I've come to learn that as powerful as God is there is a big level of "free will" which also results in conseqeunces. God DOES have the power to break his own "science" and cause miracles but that is up to Him.
As far as destiny or Him choosing your death time...I think it's more or less He "Knows" rather then "Orchestrates." Simply because, again, he can only lead the "horse" to water (in this case, Humans to Himself), but he can not make them "drink."
As for my take on the pope, perhaps his intentions are right, but I don't believe we should be praying to anyone else except God Himself (and the Trinity that He is)....plus there is a lot of self-glorification he allows....kinda sets me off. Everything's forgivable though
As for cutting in line (the less serious subject): Nah I wouldn't let him.

What if the joke is on you, like I was told its just St Peter checking you claim ticket, so the line is gonna be worse than the post office/bank/dmv/unemployment lines combined. I mean, so backed up you have to sit in hell long enough to appriciate your exsitence.
The pope...he gets to talk to God all the time, like, what's his damn hurry?
Then again, einstein said time was irrelevent. So like maybe stuff happens up there in like lightspeed.
Who knows?.... deep thinking is cool.

I wouldn't let him cut. I'd strike up a conversation. I'm counting on the line being pretty long, so we'd become pretty good friends. Then when you get to the front, you can be like, "I'm with him-->" and they let you in without asking anything, like a cool person at an exclusive club.
Just don't wear your "I'm with stupid-->" shirt.
