Old Pope retires, new pope being elected, cant afford a scandal, The Queen cancels appointments, she aint getting any younger and would be unlikely to retire if elected, do I smell an AGENDA?
But the papacy being so ingrained in Italy, is it feasible that a black Pope would be elected? They are quite a racist country. Not fishing in saying that, and not saying catholics are either, but I think its unlikely for that reasonTonyBook said:blue underpants said:Im not a catholic but the wife is and she has just been watching the goings on in Rome today as the process of electing the new pope gets underway
Listening to what some of the experts are saying there could be a possibility that the new Pope could be an American, Cardinal O'Malley of Boston is amongst the favourites if not the favourite.
That could be a recipe for disaster, he might be a nice man and make a great Pope but in the eyes of half the world he would just be an American puppet to the White House, it would be just too contentious and they really should be looking elsewhere
Its well known that the only real growth of the Catholic church is in Africa and with this in mind they really should be looking at a Cardinal from there or Asia certainly not another European and certainly not an American
Another front runner is a Cardinal from Brazil, that would be acceptable to a lot of people as well
I'm not a religious type, but Cardinal Turkson from Ghana is also a favourite and
would be a good choice IMO.

Time for the freedom to follow any or no religion regardless of where you come from or where you are born.
Thankfully God has given us the freedom to decide who we want to be but impores us to make the right choices and follow the right path.

I hope you're fishing.
You called me out and I agree about choices. Religion ain't for me though. I see Muslims drinking, Cardinals f@~king kids and it's a little bit more than ironic.Blueband Brother said:dronefromsector7g said:Hard to give a shit. Time to scrap religion.
