Religion March Madness: Tuesday Is New Pope Day!
Posted by Goldy on Fri, Mar 8, 2013 at 9:11 AM
Well, maybe:
Roman Catholic cardinals will begin electing a new pope on Tuesday 12 March, according to a statement released in Rome. ... The last "general congregations" in 2005 took three days...
I've got my money on Cardinal Marc Ouellet in the office papal pool. How about you?

Personally, I would like to throw my hat in the ring.
Reasons I would like to be considered, include:
-As a gay man I spend a lot of time on my knees.
-These gay orgies sound awesome and should become a weekly event for ALL Catholics.
-I would look wicked cool in a pope hat, trust me.
-I don't have a vagina!
-I am intimately familiar with self-flagellation

March 12th is also when the Comet Pan-STARRS will become visible in the northern hemisphere skies.
COINCIDENCE? I think not.

As a quebecker, the last thing we need here in quebec is a french canadian pope. our government doesn't need any more justification for french canadian supremicism. it's scary here. help.

My heart goes out to you, andie. I imagine being Anglo in Québec is like being a Tutsi during the Rwandan genocide. Or like being a Real American in Puerto Rico. The horror, the horror...

I've known Donald Weurl for a long time and he has every intention of being pope. What a ladder climber. and not afraid to pleasure the correct person on the ladder climb.
When he was bishop in pittsburgh we have huge fights and protests with him and his minions during the city council meetings about adding GLB to the non-discrimination policy for the city.
UNTIL a former priest took a picture he had of Donald in the Norreh (a gay private club) during his early priestly days. That stopped the problem and we got it passed.

I would like to be cross with a Canadian pope for a change, please! Plus it'd be hilarious to have a pope from a Catholic province that rejected the Church, in a country where same-sex marriage is legal and mostly embraced.

That being said: it will be Scola of Milan if the Holy See wants to keep the current path of the church (right to oblivion) or Peter Turkson of Ghana if they want to make the church more focused on the part of the world where its not completely obsolete. and the 'peter' part of the Malachy pope prophecy.
Petrus Romanus, qui paſcet oues in multis tribulationibus: quibus tranſactis ciuitas ſepticollis diruetur, & Iudex tremẽdus iudicabit populum ſuum

Marc Ouellet had his pedophile brother lived with him while he was under house arrest and asked people to forgive him. Meanwhile, Marc Ouellet has always refused to meet with victims of pedophile priests.

In addition to his role in de-legitimizing Archbishop Hunthausen, Donna Wuerl is currently Chief Justice John Roberts's bishop. Just saying.

@7, Don't forget about the Ejaculation Prayers (also known as aspiration). I'm assuming you're already qualified and proficient at that.
