Pope Francis' greatest hits of 2013By Daniel Burke, CNN Belief Blog Co-Editor (CNN) - First he won the Internet. Then he won Facebook. Now, Pope Francis has won Time magazine's Person of the Year for 2013. "He took the name of a humble saint and then called for a church of healing," Time said in announcing the award on Wednesday. "The septuagenarian superstar is poised to transform a place that measures change by the century." Vatican spokesman Rev. Federico Lombardi said Time's announcement came as no surprise. "It is a positive sign that one of the most prestigious acknowledgements in the field of the international press has been attributed to one who proclaims spiritual, religious and moral values in the world, and who speaks effectively in favor of peace and greater justice," Lombardi said. "With regard to the Pope, for his part, he does not seek fame and success, since he carries out his service for the proclamation of the Gospel and the love of God for all. If this attracts men and women and gives them hope, the Pope is content. If this nomination as 'Person of the Year' means that many have understood this message, at least implicitly, he will certainly be glad," Lombardi continued. In honor of Time's award, here are the year's top stories about Pope Francis: Pope Francis won the Internet. Literally.

==BIBLICAL EXCELLENT MIRACLES==
Stealing advertising space...the shame! Theft is a sin and you are bound to go to your imaginary friends imaginary enemies home (aka hell) for breaking that commandment...bad Christian, grow up and stop pretending to be good!
Taken directly from CNN's terms and conditions page: "• You agree not to upload, post or otherwise transmit, without CNN's express prior approval, User Content which contains advertising or any solicitation with respect to products or services; "
As much as you're not so much offering a product, you are trying to sell your fallacious belief system and in turn recruit...silly Christian showing hypocrisy!
Unreal a group of Italians formed this outfit 300 years after Christ, by a directive from the Emperor Constantine and they claim to have direct ties to Peter himself…. NOT They have their own bank, their own sovereign country, "Vatican City". They can, and have, hidden crimes against children & women for centuries. They has directed assassinations of dissidents and lived in personal luxuries at the expense of the foolish financial contributors. Yes, their is a God, yes, his Son lives. And yes, they are not pleased with your lust for power, your lust for money and your lust for children.
