Thou shall not call or use the name of the almighty God in vain.

Or are u telling there as not been lightening since he took over as d pope

oluwadare26: Or are u telling there as not been lightening since he took over as d pope

of course not.. there have been plenty of lightning just like how there have been plenty of sun rain wind snow etc
the pope's decisions has nothing to do with climatic change or forecast or what so ever

*ignoring d 'lightening' and staring at d Pope's shoe*

Badt girl! , wetin carry ur eye go shoe place!

But na correct shoes ooooo!

The mindset behind this thread is what has held back Africans from using their mind to reason
Lightening is indeed confirmation from God regarding Catholism- a psuedo form of Christainity
Why you no kuku go carry 'ebo' offer to sango?

Haters of Jonathan can you see the way lightening will finish your head? Keep abusing the GOD SENT man.

if you guys realy have read revelation, and truely understands what was written there, you would know that the end is near, very near.
That is no ordinary lightning strike. Its a confirmation for sure. But from who? God or satan?

revelation or not.. that OP's lightning is a fraud!!! we all know that the world as we know it is coming to an End. but that does not justify underhanded measures...

Mstchew. Nonsense and Rubbish!

Actually, Thor is not happy


No but seriously, it has to be one of three things;

1) Photoshop
2) chance photography (since we cant verify the date of the picture, this is more likely)
3) unexplained (you can fill in act of god here if u like)


Filippo Monteforte has been taking pictures of the pope since 1991 or there about. This part of his career spans over 20 years and there is a high possibility he might have taken a chance picture of the Vatican any one time in this 20 year period and captured the image we see. It only seems right for his personal promotion to publish this picture right now and fuel the "mysterious" band wagon.



Mind you, that "pointy" stuff at the top of the dome actually doubles as a lightning rod. Given that the dome is the highest point for miles around, it isn't unusual to have lightning hit (which it actually does several times a year). Getting the opportunity to catch that view is the only remarkable thing about this picture.

@Tampa!! Tampa!! So u don carry dis ur trick enta NL hmmm. Btw dat mallam still find u for dat one wey u pull on him

Whoa! That's a unique lightning on the Vatican dome...i hope the thunder that came afterwards shook the Vatican foundation

toothpaste: Haters of Jonathan can you see the way lightening will finish your head? Keep abusing the GOD SENT man.

mumu if Jonathan was God sent then im sure he has gone astray.

Old testament Judgment in "this modern times".

Did you set your Cameras before the lightning occur,besides,how did u know the lightning was going to happen?

This is faker than fake!
Even the pic proves it. Lightning is one fast phenomenon. Wat are the chances of the guy actually pointing his camera at the dome and anticipating a strike.
Haaaaa! So dumb fake! I think the photographer is actually trying to insult our IQ.

I'm reading some comments and I've had to modify my post for more clarification.
Pope retires on monday, there is no news of a storm or anything like that.
If there was a storm on that same day, the whole would know, trust me, they would take it as a sign.
A man sets his camera idly in front of the dome on the day that the pope retired, no storm and anything. And he catches pic of a lightning strike.
First of all, why did he point his cam at the dome on that prticular day?
He is a vatican photographer, what is there that he has not snapped a million times.
Or was he anticipating a strike in a clear weather?
The whole thing is boxed up, like a pack of dumb lies.
Some say it was photographed, others say it was videod.
BBC uploads the video and another vatican photographer is claiming it?
Haaa! I need to chillax

You mean you guys bliv the picture, kaiiiii Nigerians are very razzzz. No wonder our politicians will promise us heaven and earth and we believe them. #photoshop. SMH

because there was lightning on the St Peter basilica church, nairalanders are spewing trash! If this was to happen in Canaan Land,sango ota, they would say it is actually from God. That lightning you see there is no ordinary lightning believe it or not.

Na who b d person wen no say lightning wan happen wen he com wait snap am?On a serious note our basic physics made us to understant dat light travels faster than sound,hw comes dis snap shot(may b u no know d speed of light)lastly,Building of such should av ebonite rod 2 resist d effect of d lightning

They cant just tired tired of feeding the world with propaganda and lies to justify certain things.
