His loss is minor to me and millions of others, while significant to millions as well. His death has zero effect on me for the fact that he is just another man who has herded countless sheep to bow in his presence, as did all ‘leaders’ before him and as all will do after him. He is simply a man that succumbed to the powerful grasp of organized religion who happened to be placed in a position of power. Good people die everyday, people who choose not to be in the spotlight, and their lives are just as significant, and shouldn’t deserve less recognition. I don't think the Popes loss is any greater than any other human loss, although most of humanity places greater value on one mans life and none to the next.
