I'll submit my two-sense....
If the Pope was healthy, and all of the sudden he went into immediate cardiac arrest or was murdered or what-have-you, then I would've waited awhile before I moved the thread to another forum. If the president was assassinated, I would wait awhile before moving it. If we were bombed/invaded/etc that would be right there of central importance for the moment. But as others said before, the pope was in such a state that he was going to pass within the past couple of days and everyone knew that. There were already threads devoted to him being sick in the political forum and/or lounge. I respect my catholic friends and posters and do not have a problem with something undolphin-like being posted on the main board if it's an immediate shock (like some of the examples above). It still wouldnt sit there for days. My views probably differ a little bit from my buddies that I moderate/operate the site with, so if an issue like this arises, we will talk about it.
