| | | | | College of Cardinals: Encyclopedia II - History of the Roman Catholic Church - Prologue: The ministry of Jesus of Nazareth c. 4 BC – AD 33 The Roman Catholic Church was founded on the person and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, known as Jesus Christ, "Christ" meaning the same as "Messiah". Jesus was a carpenter from the region of Galilee and observed the Jewish faith. Roman Catholicism thus considers itself a successor religion to Judaism with the Christian God and the God of the Jews seen as one and the same.

Golden Rose - Workmanship.
The blossom
Prior to the pontificate of Sixtus IV (1471-84) it consisted of a simple and single rose made of pure gold and slightly tinted with red. For greater embellishment, yet still retaining the mystical meaning, a ruby placed in the heart of the rose, and afterwards many precious gems set in the petals, were used instead of the red colouring of the gold.
Pope Sixtus IV substituted in place of the single rose a thorny branch with leaves and many roses (a half-s ...

When John Paul was quoted as saying "It is as it was", possibly suggesting that he supported the controversial Mel Gibson movie, Dziwisz told the press that, "The Holy Father has told no one of his opinion of this film."

Pope Benedict XVI - Election to the Papacy.
On January 2, 2005, Time magazine quoted unnamed Vatican sources as saying that Ratzinger was a frontrunner to succeed John Paul II should the pope die or become too ill to continue as pope.
