The Papacy

[Evil Chris]

I'm thinking a German Pope.

Either Walter Kasper, or Joseph Ratzinger.

Hopefully this one won't be such a bigot, arent there any entries from the Philippines?

I do hope this isnt like choosing a "winner" from the Eurovision Song Contest

A good English Pope thats what we need :lol:

[Rolo]

Maybe the new pope should be arabic or asian - would surely make an impact in those fundamentalist areas of the world...

I guess it will be one these Cardinals who will be pope?

LOL... give me at least three real reasons why it matters and I'll take you seriously.

[Hell Puppy]

Could be someone like the Cardinal from Honduras, lets them appear more progressive and world wide in the power distribution.

No matter who it is, you can bet it'll be someone just as conservative as John Paul II. He went to great efforts to insure the electors share his conservatism. He will spin in his grave if the next Pope does something like ok birth control or worse yet remove the celibacy requirement for priests.

[Newton]

1. i look pimp in white
2. unlimited bling and the chance to promote adult as a good thing

He'll speak a language I know!
He'll be from somewhere I've been!
He'll have taken abstinence because of the women over here so I'll understand for once :huh:

[Nickatilynx]

Maybe we should do a Pope Pool!!!

Everyone throw 10 bucks in and play pic-a-pope


Interesting England only has 1 Cardinal ...and he sounds Irish ,lol .


also isn't any pope 80 or above ineligible?

My money would be on a pope in his 60s .

[Newton]

Is there a list of runners and riders? need to see some form on these first lol

I am not putting my money on a gary glitter lol

[JoesHO]

seriously though, ( i am not catholic) but I would think that since the south American countries are predomantly catholic from birth, and it is the over whelming religion of that part of the world, that it be only fitting to have a POPE from there

has there ever been a spanish pope?

Cheers Joe, still looking for the place to sign up now, I will leave out the bit about being an evil cunt though, that might tarnish my application.

Well I read a few of those pages, and all I gotta say is that they certainly have amazing theological credentials.
