whats with the world?

The newspaper is screaming that the pope died and the world is mourning. Weird world I must say. All the preaching, all the propaganda hasn't driven the point into their thick heads? There is a heaven, it is a nice place to be, and when you die you will go there (assuming of course that you have aligned yourself to the true faith, didn’t fancy your neighbour's wife - or confessed of doing so - and donated enough to keep the pope well-fed). So what’s all the fuss about? He was a good man, a great strategic marketing guru, and I am sure he is being well taken care of in heaven. So, stop mourning and celebrate the day. Be happy. For I am sure the pope would really like us that way.
