Fr. Scott Bailey, C.Ss.R.

Some people are proclaiming that Pope Francis is in Hell. Others are saying he is in Heaven. To do either is to sin. Only God knows the result of anyone’s particular judgment. Whoever makes either proclamation is putting themself in God’s place.

Only Holy Church can declare someone to be in Heaven after a lengthy and exhaustive process. She never proclaims anyone is in Hell. And it is not for us to say.

The only appropriate response to anyone’s death is to pray for them. Charity demands it.
