Cause if it is for giggles, its not funny.

Then don't laugh.

I have a Catholic background within my family, and even though I'm not a strict believer in the faiths, I find your comparison of what could be the Pope rather insulting,

Then be insulted, though that was not my intention.

Why are you responding only to me? Why don't you respond to STEED, who said "another wacky vision story"? Or to Skybird who called the level of credulity "scary"? Or to Zayphod's and Bookworm's sarcastic post?

I have zero Catholic background within my family and 100% Jewish background. If the flame looked more like Moses with the 10 commandments, I would dismiss it just the same.

Catholics believe the pope to be a representative of God here on Earth. That is serious business, and this is people's beliefs you are taking the mick out of don't you appreciate?

Does the Pope command that you must believe that this flame shape in the photo is the Pope? Do you really want to start googling for fire/flame/smoke images caught on camera that represent human figures? Did I even present an argument that the Pope is not what Catholics believe him to be? If this flame is nothing more than a coincidental shape, does it in any way prove or disprove any Catholic understandings of the Pope?

You were quick to pounce on Kranz when he mentioned Jews though.

I never "pounced" on Kranz. On the contrary, I stated my post has nothing to do with disputing anyone's religion. And my second post asked what he meant, which Skybird answered. So where did i "pounce", deary? Read carefully before going into a fit of fervent hyperventilation.

Try to shut the Jews up elsewhere folks. It won't work here. Too bad.
