Is it true that the Pope gives the crown back to Christ when he returns?

Answer: No

NO! You don't take crowns or anything else with you when you die. You may receive a crown when you get to Heaven, but you don't take anything with you.

Answer: No

NO! That is a completely false idea. Everything about that is just wrong.

Answer: No

If that was even possible, somehow I don't think Christ would want that crown...

NO because the Pope doesn't wear a crown! He wears what is called a mitre, which all Catholic bishops wear. The Pope is sort of the HEAD bishop, being the Bishop of Rome. He is elected by a group of bishops called cardinals.

Answer: Yes

Depending on the interpretation of the question, the answer can also be Yes. In answering Yes, I do not dispute the answers above saying No.

Traditionally, there do exist crowns that the pope has worn on occasion. They symbolise his position as the vicar, or deputy, of Christ, leading the faithful until Christ returns. When Jesus left Peter in charge, he left Peter in the leadership position Jesus himself would have occupied had he not returned to heaven. When Christ returns, that leadership will be returned to Christ, whether or not a literal crown exists.

Although the Pope does not believe in the Bible that Jesus already came back once to die for our sins, the next return by Jesus will be when He takes back the Christians with Him to heaven. So, the Pope doesn't really believe the whole Bible so Jesus is not going to accept anything from true unbelievers. So the answer really is NO.
