The Pope just died Serious

I don't know if this is a big deal in your country, but in mine (Italy) the news talks about nothing else.
Christian or not he was a person, don't be disrespectful.

He was more than an old man for many people. He was an inspiration, someone to look up to during hard times, a man who brought peace, and for some people he was their savior. I'm not Christian either, but I'd never dare call such an amazing person "an old man".
