RELEVANCE TO PIZZAGATE
The Q threads have an intrinsic connection to Pizzagate because they constantly extrapolate on themes present in the Podesta emails and offer corroboration of the research done by the Voat Pizzagate community.
LATEST Q THREAD
@LightlyToasted posted the Dec. 7 Q Anon thread here which features several photos, including one of Pope St. John Paul II with the caption: "Pope visits the site of the Sermon on the Holy Mount" in which one can see the late pope embracing a bishop.
This picture appears to have been taken when Pope JP II visited the Sea of Galilee near the Mount of Beatitudes in March 24, 2000. The bishop the pope is greeting is apparently Archbishop Boutros Mouallem of the Greek Melkite Community. You can see them together in this picture:

POPE ST. JOHN PAUL'S POWERFUL HOMILY ON THE MOUNT OF BEATITUDES
The pope, addressing the youth of the world, gave an (uncharacteristically!) brief but extremely compelling sermon on that occasion in which he pointed to the nearby Mount Sinai (on which the Ten Commandments were given to Moses) and the Mount of Beatitudes as "the roadmap of our Christian life and a summary of our responsibilities to God and neighbour. The Law and the Beatitudes together mark the path of the following of Christ and the royal road to spiritual maturity and freedom."
He goes on to remind us that there are two voices competing for our attention and two paths open to all of us: "the choice between good and evil, between life and death."
EXCERPT FROM THE POPE'S PIVOTAL SERMON
The Ten Commandments of Sinai may seem negative: "You will have no false gods before me; . . . do not kill; do not commit adultery; do not steal; do not bear false witness ... " (Ex 20:3, 13-16). But in fact they are supremely positive. Moving beyond the evil they name, they point the way to the law of love which is the first and greatest of the commandments: "You will love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul and all your mind. . .You will love your neighbor as yourself" (Mt 22:37, 39). Jesus himself says that he came not to abolish but to fulfill the Law (cf. Mt 5:17). His message is new but it does not destroy what went before; it leads what went before to its fullest potential. Jesus teaches that the way of love brings the Law to fulfillment (cf. Gal 5:14). And he taught this enormously important truth on this hill here in Galilee.
3."Blessed are you!", he says, "all you who are poor in spirit, gentle and merciful, you who mourn, who care for what is right, who are pure in heart, who make peace, you who are persecuted! Blessed are you!" But the words of Jesus may seem strange. It is strange that Jesus exalts those whom the world generally regards as weak. He says to them, "Blessed are you who seem to be losers, because you are the true winners: the kingdom of heaven is yours!" Spoken by him who is "gentle and humble in heart" (Matt 11:29), these words present a challenge which demand a deep and abiding metanoia of the spirit, a great change of heart.
You young people will understand why this change of heart is necessary! Because you are aware of another voice within you and all around you, a contradictory voice. It is a voice which says, "Blessed are the proud and violent, those who prosper at any cost, who are unscrupulous, pitiless, devious, who make war not peace, and persecute those who stand in their way". And this voice seems to make sense in a world where the violent often triumph and the devious seem to succeed. "Yes", says the voice of evil, "they are the ones who win. Happy are they!"
4.Jesus offers a very different message. Not far from this very place Jesus called his first disciples, as he calls you now. His call has always demanded a choice between the two voices competing for your hearts even now on this hill, the choice between good and evil, between life and death. Which voice will the young people of the twenty-first century choose to follow? To put your faith in Jesus means choosing to believe what he says, no matter how strange it may seem, and choosing to reject the claims of evil, no matter how sensible or attractive they may seem.
In the end, Jesus does not merely speak the Beatitudes. He lives the Beatitudes. He is the Beatitudes. Looking at him you will see what it means to be poor in spirit, gentle and merciful, to mourn, to care for what is right, to be pure in heart, to make peace, to be persecuted. This is why he has the right to say, "Come, follow me!" He does not say simply, "Do what I say". He says, "Come, follow me!"
You hear his voice on this hill, and you believe what he says. But like the first disciples at the Sea of Galilee, you must leave your boats and nets behind, and that is never easy—especially when you face an uncertain future and are tempted to lose faith in your Christian heritage. To be good Christians may seem beyond your strength in today’s world. But Jesus does not stand by and leave you alone to face the challenge. He is always with you to transform your weakness into strength. Trust him when he says: "My grace is enough for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness" (2 Cor 12:9)!
RELEVANCE OF THE POPE'S HOMILY FOR OUR TIME
Not hard at all for us here on Voat to see why "Q" is directing us to the Polish Pope's beautiful homily.
There are two voices demanding our attention and two paths open to us all.
There is the voice of God and His Saints urging us to follow the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes and to follow Jesus and "be poor in spirit, gentle and merciful, to mourn, to care for what is right, to be pure in heart, to make peace, to be persecuted."
Then there is the voice of Satan which contradicts the Beatitudes which says: "Blessed are the proud and violent, those who prosper at any cost, who are unscrupulous, pitiless, devious, who make war not peace, and persecute those who stand in their way". And this voice seems to make sense in a world where the violent often triumph and the devious seem to succeed. "Yes", says the voice of evil, "they are the ones who win. Happy are they!"
We are called to follow the former and make the fundamental choice to obey the Laws of God which requires a change of heart, a metanoia, to accept His grace and His assistance in following the straight and narrow path to eternal happiness.
This is apparently a decisive, INDEED, A PIVOTAL moment in the history of the world. Whom are we going to follow: Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, or Satan?

Why are you calling the pope "Saint"?
RCC is the antichrist of scripture.
Sits on 7 hills, changed Gods times and Laws, had a head wound, ect ect
Guy couldnt be farther from a saint.

I didn't unilaterally decide to call Pope John Paul II. He was officially canonized a saint by Pope Francis two years ago.

The Vatican is the homebase of pedophilia on the planet.

"...nor the desire of women" - Daniel 11:37

The Catholic clerical pedophile problem is indeed a terrible scandal, but other denominations as well as secular institutions have the same problem and often to a far greater degree.

Hardly to a "far greater degree"

That’s why we’re all here. To stop the abuse of children. We don’t know yet the extent of the abuse in the government, in public schools, in other churches, and faiths. But, the veil is being lifted. Let us work together and stop blaming .
