The world is already referring to Pope Francis as the coolest and most progressive pope of all time but there may be evidence that he's also a super hero.
According to a source who spoke to Huffington post, Pope dresses up at night as a batman or superhero-esque and leaves the Vatican to save the souls of homeless people.

A recent interview with Archbishop Konrad Krajewski, the "Almoner of His Holiness," raised speculation that the Pope joins him on his nightly trips into Rome to give alms to the poor, and it turns out that the rumors are probably true.
A knowledgable source in Rome told The Huffington Post that "Swiss guards confirmed that the pope has ventured out at night, dressed as a regular priest, to meet with homeless men and women."
Krajewski earlier said, “When I say to him ‘I’m going out into the city this evening’, there’s the constant risk that he will come with me," and he merely smiled nd ducked the question when reporters asked him point-blank whether the Pope accompanied him into the city.

His reward is supposed to be in heaven.. That's his job and it's no news if he did it.. We won't expect armed robbers to do that, would we?

The pope is a Jesuit, so his lifestyle should not be surprising.. They're always humble and helpful. The only thing he needs is the media off his back.

The media has a way of twisting ordinary stories to become 'big deals'.. They purposely didn't mention he was a Jesuit for many years before his papal ordination, and that there are over 20,000 priests all over the world like him, living simply and helping the needy. Also, they used 'disguised' instead of 'dressed simply' to make it look like he was avoiding/creating something. He just didn't wear his cap and dress of office, but the simple flowing gowns priests move around with. Is that a disguise or simple dress??

Now see how people are killing themselves on this thread, due to misinformation and misconception. Serves them right sha..Some are too lazy to research and learn.


Shout out to MTN network, for allowing me comment before Afam..
N.B: Any comment you see insulting me below are just angry reactions because I was first..

the key words here are 'sneak out'. no pope has done it before therefore what he's done is 'new' and hence 'news'. read my lips 'neeeeews'!

While the pope is giving alms to the needy and the homeless, our humble pastors are advicing the needy to sow the little they have and expect imaginary abundance.

What a pity angry

Call it showing off or whatever, I don't care, I'm not a catholic but other Pastors should learn from this man, not driving around in convoys and going to airports with bodyguards.

If you call this showing off, then what would you say about Jesus's humility. Nigerian pastors too should show off now abi

what did i expect? a lot of people to come out and start making mischievous comments. these 'daddy in the lord' boys wouldn't miss any opportunity to take a dig at the Pope. my simple advice for you all is to make your own peace with the Lord. even if the Pope was evil and your daddy in the lord was the holiest, if you fail to make your own path with the Lord, you will rot in hell. no amount of daddy daddy daddy calling will save you!

The head of the church who are supposed to go to hell sneaks out to avoid recognition and help the needy at night.

What a way to serve and worship the devil. What a way to go to hell.
