Well they weren't supposed to.They are nowadays. Pope Alexander VI had at least six, including Lucrezia Borgia.
He's spent like a dozen years in Peru and has dual citizenship.I'm not Catholic, but I really hope the new pope isn't like the average American.
I read an article speculating that cardinals might think he was too young.Most Americans reject Catholicism
Isn't Christianity and all it's sub denominations out numbering the folks going to Sunday Morning mass in America?
-I get it that the Catholic Church has done a lot of wrong and hoping that an American Pope can tap into the $$$ train here
"Spotlight" in 2015, America has spoken already
I don't see how an American Pope really helps the Catholic Church and they still elected an old man at 69. How about a pope closer to 50 that can relate?
Feels also like they are somehow trying to please a certain leader that i won't name but likes to broadcast photos of himself in Pope apparel

This made me curious if there were many cardinals at that age. Apparently only 15 cardinals under the age of 60. And only 1 under that age of 50. Definitely limited selection in that age range.How about a pope closer to 50 that can relate?

I've already seen a picture of a friend's aunt with the new pope when they were school children at St. Mary's. Apparently my friend was also baptized there. And one of my coworkers grew up in that same town and even went to the same church growing up that the pope attended as a kid.
