Pope Francis is Argentinian.
Pope Francis readily admits that he is a HUGE soccer fan & that he does, quite naturally, support HIS National Team (i.e., Argentina) & some Argentinian Soccer Clubs.
He has also admitted, openly, that he follows the progress of matches involving Argentina. He has aides that keep him apprised of the score & progress. He has even hinted that maybe the ONLY time he now watches TV is to watch Argentina play.
So, there is NO QUESTION, whatsoever, that the Pope, Francis, is fervently rooting for HIS Argentinian Team.
To be fair Francis has renounced his ‘Vicar of Christ‘ title — thus indicating that he is no longer Christ’s representative on Earth.
But, he is still Pope. That has to mean that he MUST have a better relationship with God than anyone else on earth.
So, IF Argentina loses on Sunday …
That would be a blow to Francis’ credibility.
It sure has to mean that God does HIM no favors.
God, omnipotent, cannot but help knowing what is going on. He must know what the score is.
So, IF Argentina does NOT WIN on Sunday I will be demanding that the Pope abdicate. He will no longer have even a shred of credibility.
So, bet on Argentina WINNING.
France, a Catholic country (to be fair), has NO change — IN THEORY — against the clout of the Pope.
