Yeah, you are a miso-religionist, we got that a long time ago. So your point is ............ ?Does it make a difference whothe next Pedophile Protecting Pope will be?
The Western Governments didnot have the balls to take the last one to task and step up for their ruined childrenso does it really matter who the next pervert is to enjoy immunity fromjustice?
There is a chance of coursethat the next Pope will be better but I give it low odds. Do you?

I agree, your posts being an excellent example.It's no use Karrie, there's some subjects (like this one) that just bring out "stupid".
I read your link.I would have thought the link I provided yesterday might "clue up" some of the nutters! -![]()
For God to have three stars, wouldn't He/She/It have to exist in the first place?Sure beats having my head up God's *** like some here.

What's your point?
Are you aware of the actions Ratzinger took to bury reports of criminal activity under John Paul II?
Are you aware of the policies he wrote to commit obstruction of justice?
I find it odd that you are willing to forgo due process and hang some police officers but aren't willing to discuss investigating the actions of Ratzinger in hiding criminals and their activities, when there's ample evidence to support it.
Then you can't see.I see that you are still calling for the Pope's head.
Then lets take them on together bud.I also see that you haven't called for the head of the Irish government, nor the Canadian government.
Both have been found complicit in coverups concerning the abuse of children.
But I'm not.I'd suggest you go to your bathroom, look in the mirror, and say "hypocrite".
For God to have three stars, wouldn't He/She/It have to exist in the first place?
What happens when your God's name is "Moe Money"?He does to those who haveinflated egos.
Ask them ---- Would a God condemn you justto have to die for you?
The largest inflated egoswill think that a slave master will die for his slaves.
Look at me the Christianssay, I am so important that a God will die for me.
Oops, Gods cannot die.
Ratherself-aggrandising that?

Why?It's very unlikely that we'll have an African Pope.. this go around anyway.
Why?
What about, the best man for the job? What about choosing someone who can refocus the church? That would certainly grow the Catholicism for that area. Let me ask you this...is the church ready for a black pope?Popes have always come from cultures deeply imbued in the Catholic tradition, going back a millennia at least.. Italy, Poland, Bavaria. The Church is in its infancy in Africa and Turkson is largely an unkown commodity.
Thanks Coldstream! ♦The African will get some support from other 2nd and 3rd world cardinals. Peter Turkson will be hampered by some remarks he's made on the use of condoms in Africa. He's viewed as a bit of loose canon.. unpredictable.. which is usually the death knell to prospects for election to the Papacy, by the tradition bound College.
HIV/AIDS and condoms In 2009, he reaffirmed the Catholic social teaching on contraception, in regard to statements made by Pope Benedict XVI that condoms were not a solution to Africa’s AIDS crisis and were taken out of context by the media.[25] Turkson did not rule out condoms in all circumstances suggesting they could be useful in the situation of a married, faithful couple where one partner is infected; although he warns that, as the quality of condoms in Africa is poor, their use could engender false confidence. He said abstinence, fidelity, and refraining from sex if infected were the key to fighting the epidemic. He also believes that the money being spent on condoms would be better spent providing anti-retroviral drugs to those already infected.
It's very unlikely that we'll have an African Pope.. this go around anyway.
It is possible we'll have a Latin American.. if so likely Archbishop Scherer of Sao Paulo.. even possible we could have an American, despite the fact that he'd be hampered by rumours of a CIA conspiracy.. like Peter Turkson would be by that of the Global Investment Organism and NWO. If so it likely will be Raymond Burke, Prefect of the Apostolic Signatura (Supreme Court).
But i'd put my money on an Italian.. Angelo Bagnasco, Archbishop of Genoa.. whose stated intention is to clean up the mess caused by Vatican 2, by 're-reading' in a strictly orthodox interpretation. This is a not a College that will be interested in innovation at this point in time.
