Are you wondering what is really going on in that Papal Conclave all this time?

nsfw?

They’re burning incriminating documents

Holy smoke.

Fun fact: The next pope is decided by a series of boxing matches.
“In this corner, from Venice, Italy… Weighing 227 lbs… The Pastor of Disaster… God’s right hand and left jab…Cardinal Sin!”

Politics and intrigue as with any group of humans.

There are 110+ cardinals in there.
One of those 110+, that fits the little red shoes of Benedict perfectly, will be the next Pope.
Surely the fitting takes them a couple of days.

I heard on the news something about “chanting to the saints for guidance on choosing a new pope” and all I could think was if this was a bunch of nearly naked people in a jungle somewhere we’d scoff at their primitive superstitions. It’s all a bunch of religious hoo-doo to me and I don’t give a damn who gets chosen – whoever it is will be dangerously out of date (no birth control!?!, celibate priests, no women in positions of power, homophobia, etc.).

You might guess that I’m not fond of the institution of the Catholic Church. Or any organized religion, for that matter.

Not even thinking about it.

Child pornographic material burns black smoke, straight from the bowels of hell.
They’re probably bathing each other using scented pope-on-a-rope.

Lots of prayers for guidance, perhaps some talk of either reformation or sanctity of the past since that is what the new Pope is dealing with. Italy is the major reformer and one of the top 3 frontrunners.

I think there is truly some of them seeking spiritual guidance and working to choose someone to lead the Church, but hey, most of them are in their 70’s, and between the lack of fresh aid and the stuffy chairs there have probably been some sharp elbows to wake up the guy next to you.

Not to mention Cardinal Dolan from New York probably has a pretty good game of canasta going over in the corner, 10 cents a point and he’s coming out of the Sistine Chapel with a nice chunk of change!

High stakes poker game.

A massive orgy with a hundred little boys, whose bodies they later burn to produce the black smoke.

WHITE SMOKE HAS BEEN SEEN (1:50pm USA Central time).
Any takers on the new Pope’s name?

Italian Pope.

I wouldn’t mind the Cardinal from Quebec getting it, but I don’t think that it’s going to happen.

Pope John the kiddy diddler the 50th.

I’m interested to see what the Italian would change. I guess I don’t really care though since I don’t attend anymore except an occasional holiday.

@ragnioli If you only knew how much I dislike child molesters and anyone who condones that behavior, versus how much I love God and the Catholic way of worshipping. It hurts me every time you post those things, even though I know it has happened, I just cringe. :(

“Habemus Mamam!”

Just about to learn the name of a man whose name we will never use…exciting times :/

It’s the Argentinian!

I thought someone guessed that Betty White was gonna be pope, but what he really said was “Bet he White!”

@filmfann
White and a right wing reactionary that thinks pro-choice is a death cult and that gay marriage is demonic.

No. Mr. Show tells me that civilization moves forward by a series of blowjobs, and I see no reason to question that information.
