English Kings and Roman Popes since 1534

I got a challenge, pretending God had blessed English monarchs more than Popes, since English monarchs have lived longer.* This is not true, the reason there have been more Popes is, Popes have become such later.

Starting with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_VIII and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Clement_VII

Ending with last dead ones in each case, and with Popes omitting Vatican II Antipopes not recognised by Pope Michael (whom I also omit since he's still alive, like Elizabeth II). As to Monarchs of British Isles, I have not taken the legitimate Stuart claims into account, since the man was arguably not into Catholicism. After Henry VIII and Clement VII, I do not link to the wikis, I leave that to you.

So, Popes have since 1534 died older, youngest popes being older than youngest monarch in British isles, oldes older than oldest, median Popes (with even number of values, there are two medians, I could of course get a mean of them) older than median monarch, each quartile, low and high Popes older than monarchs. Indeed, minimal Papal age is higher than lower quartile English monarch age, lower quartile Papal age is higher than median English monarch age, and higher quartile papal age is not higher, indeed, than, but equal to maximum English monarch age.

Anyone into "God's blessing is visible in long years" should therefore prefer Popes over English monarchs.

Assorted retorts from yahoo boards and elsewhere : Zack Pearlman tried to tell me not to listen to Lizzie Reezay

** It can be noted that his foster son Edgardo Mortara - the only, probably, case where Catholic CPS took a child away during Pius IX's reign - lived 88 years according to German wiki: * 27. August 1851 in Bologna; † 11. März 1940 in Lüttich. It is a shame how wikimedia go into great detail in how he was "robbed" from his parents by papacy, but not so much how he was nearly robbed from aspiring to priesthood back to his parents, to get a retroactive Jewish education, in 1870, and had to leave Italy to escape that. It is a shame how he is remembered for being a "victim" in his childhood, while his activity as a priest, his choice, is left out. German wiki having an article on Edgardo Mortara is more balanced, while English wiki only has Mortara case.
