  1. I like how nbc puts together all the famous people we lost this year at the end of nightly news?

  2. Stop having kids folks! There's no reason to create a child that’s for the child's sake. For the potential child, birth doesn't solve any problem that it doesn't first create. All positives in life such as happiness, good food, and love are based on fulfilling needs, which get created by birth…

  3. Lost a TON of famous people this year geez…

  4. God bless him! RIP, sir! Happy NYE to everyone, be safe and sound!

  5. Filthy man! 1 less chomo news is good news

  6. The Pope who passed away is now in heaven 😢

  7. R.I.P Pope Benedict XVI You Will Soon Enter The Gates of Heaven. (1927-2022) 😢

  8. Pope Benedict a humble worker? Really then why they don’t sell the Vatican’s gold to feed the hungry children around the world. Bunch of hypocrites sons of Lucifer.

  9. Legacy, aiding the Nazis. Good one.

  10. 2:11 THE truth is, the man was a crook, he caused more harm than good, looked ridiculous in his red Prada slippers, covered up too many crimes, ended up imprisoned not retired, and has finally faced his final judgement.

  11. I see the media omitted the part where the old 'god' bag was a nazi sympathizer….

  12. To obtain financial freedom, one must either be a business owner, an investor or both, generating passive income, particularly on a monthly basis.

  13. Que Dios lo tenga en su gloria🙏🙏🙏

  14. I believe that after I die I will return to the way I was before I was born…a state of NOTHINGNESS. I really wish that Pope Benedict could somehow come back to life for just enough time to announce to the world that after death there is NOTHING and that ALL religions are man-made and wrong about an afterlife. After death we go back to the way we were before we were born. A state of NOTHINGNESS. It's really not so bad…and nothing to worry about.

  15. I hope in his retirement he truly repented and truly became born again! No man comes to eternity ( heaven) unless he’s born again! I remembered watching a video from YouTube when he’s on the stage( maybe the RCC alter) the entire assembly is watching male acrobatic entertainers (strippers ) the RCC is satans tool to fool billions of souls! God open up the eyes of the blind! Today if you hear his voice harden not your hearts!!!🙏🏽🙏🙏🏻✝️

  16. Same warm and full of human spirit prayers to Pope Pius XII … I was so touch when seeing television-evangelists deeply thanked you God for bringing Trump to America and the world!

  17. Always protect the Children

  18. Catholicism is a cult!!! Only accept and protect pedophile men. Won't allow members to marry. Has the largest most expensive art collection. Breaks second commandments. Worships statues that don't talk. Worships Hall of Fame people called saints. Disrespecting God himself!!!

  19. He wasn't even the first Nazi pope.

    Pope Pius XII served the Third Reich so well, he was nicknamed "Hitler's Pope". Ratzinger was just a Nazi artillery man, who later ran the Office of the Inquisition as the church's attack dog, covering up molestations by threatening victims.

    If he's a holy man, so was Charly Manson.

  20. In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit [i.e., as bishop]. Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills [i.e. Rome] will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge[a] will judge his people. The End.

  21. apparently he died due to withdrawal symptoms from lack of altar boy bum

  22. What he lived like a king while his people starve. God says worship no man.

  23. He touched so many…

  24. The vatican church runs the world of wickedness

  25. God rest his soul. I knew he was an intellectual, but I did not know what a great man he was. Ave Father Thy will be done ❤

  26. Remind me again of how many pedophile priests, he covered for

  27. Good bye Pope. You served well for The Lord

  28. Boo Hoo… The Nazi pope is dead… I hope they bury all of his writings. Of course I hope the WHOLE church dies… No other entity has damaged the human species, more than the catholic church.

  29. Judgment time for all the children molested!

  30. Barf. Too many know msm gaslighting us about this man.

  31. Oh dude died lol. Had no clue.
    Anyway….happy New Year’s Eve 😂😂😂😂

  32. Well done.. NBC news. Excellent reporting job ..today. Thank you from a snowy southern Colorado! 😇..❄️..☕️. May.. Pope Benedict Rest In Peace.

  33. Where can I bid for popie's Hitler youth uniform with swastika armbands ?

  34. Another heathen bites the dust ooowww😆

  35. Another Pedophile gone. Francis day should be coming soon. Queen already taken care of. 2023 is NOT going to be the year for Reptiles or Pedophiles.

  36. Matthew 23:9

    “And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven
