"In short: every single – “every single, without exception” – complex civilisation from the Roman and Maya empires to Easter Island, ends up collapsing, generally within 250 to 300 years." This is complete bs, even using the loosest definition of collapse. Rome's institutions lasted literally 2000 years, from the founding of the republic in 500s bce to 1453 when the Ottomans conquered the Byzantines. And even then, the peoples and cultures persisted under a different king. Even if we're talking unbroken lines of succession/government, Venice managed over 1000 years as a republic with only a few failed coup attempts.

Unless he and his cronies are also bullet proof, stab proof, immune to poison, immune to radiation, and possess no flammable property, that doesn't seem like a very good plan.

The Pope isn't just some guy who's really into Jesus. He's a monarch with 1.4 billion subjects, and millions more give a shit about his opinions. It really matters who wears the silly hat. This article doesn't belong here because it's gambling bullshit. Not because it's about a religious organization.
