Heck no, I'd hock it. lol
-
I rather think he could kiss mine. The current one has the eyes of a killer!
-
No. I don't worship inanimate objects. Besides, it's got to be covered in germs from all the other people kissing that thing.
-
err....nuh....after you!
-
I most certainly would not.
-
Probably not no. I'm not big on kissing any part of anyone, least of all some stranger.
-
No ... I am Tao-Zen Buddhist, not Catholic ... and (as mentioned) rings are inanimate and are among the type of things even I would consider as "graven image" ... I would respect and honour his title and position as a world religious leader the same way I would respect and honour a mayor, general, or large corporate CEO, but I would NOT follow any of the usual traditions that faithful Catholics would strictly adhere to..
-
No I wouldn't kiss his ring:)
-
Yes, if I was formally presented....after all, I AM a Catholic.
-
No. It's probably really dirty. I only kiss people.
-
If I can kiss the boss' ass every day at work, the Pope's ring won't be a problem yo...
-
No, I don't worship any human. I wil show respect but not do an act of worship
-
No and I guess everyone else has explained why! : )
-
No. I would treat him with the same respect and courtesy due any human, but that's it. I certainly wouldn't genuflect or kiss a ring. The idea of the microbial communities on that ring make me cringe.
-
Noooo! Who the hell knows where that ring has been!
-
I wouldn't. I find the very idea of such a thing repulsive and degrading. (But then, I'm not Catholic, either, so Pope-ring-kissing isn't an activity that would have any special significance for me.)
-
As a practicing Catholic I would say yes.
-
Wouldn't that be basically worshiping someone besides God, thus defying the very doctrine which you are supposed to by supporting? My thoughts.
-
And then hug his pendant?! ;-)
-
Definitely not. It is a worthless material object full of germs. What is so special about it that it should be kissed?
-
No, I wouldnt.
-
No i wouldn't.
-
no way. and why does he wear a cape????
-
nope
-
nope, never.
-
No, I would shake his hand, but my lips would not touch anything tha thas anything to do with him.
-
I'd have to say "nope" to the pope on that one...
-
no, I'd give Him a good ol high five and be like "don't leave me hangin"...
