This is why the rule is to not discuss politics or religion in public.

But anyway, now that we have been discussing politics for a while now, can we start debating religion?

We can combine the two. Don't you find it awfully suspicious that the pope died right after meeting JD Vance?

The Pope was overheard to say just before the meeting "last thing I want to do is shake his hand "......too soon ?

I found it more remarkable that he died on Easter Monday.
(The day the two Apostel saw Christ after the resurrection.)

Was God making some sort of statement?

Of a stroke. 🧐

Maybe Vishnu released another bubble/universe, in which the Pope is now?

Heretic! Vishnu does not create. Bramha created the bubble from the lotus growing out of his navel. Vishnu merely tasked Yama to transport the Pope to it. If the Pope had been a better devotee, Vishnu himself would have come down in his spaceship (Vimana) and transported the Pope to Vaikuntha, where Vishnu lives.

>> Vishnu does not create <<

Ha! You are a "diluted" US Hindu. 3 months ago a proper Hindu (+stock trader) told me: When Vishnu breathes out, from his pores bubbles are released, each one representing a Universe.

Btw: Fascinating analogy to the Multiverse interpretation of Quantum theory; ok, Vishnu is not in that interpretation yet, but physics is evolving, so there is still hope for the big guy (or for physics).

Hindu mythology and epics are so rich in imagination that you can fit any modern invention in them. A lot if Hindus are seduced by this vision that their ancestors had mastered advanced science. Maybe overcompensating for the white man's victory over India?

For example, the passage that Oppenheimer remembered about the light of a thousand suns, also says that when Bramhastra was unleashed on the battlefield, soldiers tried to save themselves by jumping in the river. That is enough for some Hindus to claim that our ancestors knew all about the atomic weapons.

The dome of a Hindu temple is shaped a bit like a spaceship and has been called Vimana (spaceship/aircraft) since way before the white people created airplanes and spaceships. I did not make up the Vaikuntha myth I cited earlier, many saints and holy men are said to climb into heaven in Vishnu's Vimana in their earthly bodies. A (tiny) bit like Enoch in the OT.

Ramayana was written in the first millennium or earlier, and has Rakshsas and eventually Rama flying in Pushpak Vimana.

I could go on, point is, just like Arthur C Clarke imagining satellites before they existed, my ancestors imagined many strange and wonderful things, some of which came to be, and some not. It means nothing. They did not have the math and science necessary to convert these ideas into reality.

Did you notice how they put him in a metal coffin inside his wooden one? And they soldered the metal coffin lid in place? Are they concerned about him trying to get out?
