There is some serious Shane MacGowan/Frank Black cover band potential here.

 

[Plorfu]

POOOOPE! POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE!!!!

 

[Rush Limbaugh Fan]

all that smoke is bad for the environment.. polluters!!

It's friction steam from child rape.

 

[NCCommish]

How does this pope fit the end times prophesies? Tia.

According to teh book of malachy - this is the last pope

He didn't choose the name Peter so he can't be the last.

Gay marriage is a "machination of the Father of Lies." Adoption by gay people is discrimination against children. Words of wisdom from the new Pope who distanced himself from the liberation theology movement (the priests and nuns who actively opposed dictators and took risks for social justice). The woman president of Argentina said the Catholic Church under his leadership in the country was reminiscent of "medieval times and the inquisition."

Yeah, there was no way they were going to try to bring the church forward. Their gameplan sucks and they will cease to exist in civilized countries in a few generations for it. Dibs on the popemobile.

My mother-in-law's 91-year-old brother received last rites Sunday, then took an unexpected and dramatic turn for the better on Monday.His name is Francis.She is likely to consider this a divine indicator of some sort.

No doubt. That's really interesting (no schtick).

 

[McGarnicle]

Maybe it's just me, but promising 80% more molestations in his first year in office seemed a little curious.

 

[Time Kibitzer]

The new pope will die in the next 1 and a half years.

that's pretty f'n rudeyour penis will shrivel up and ejaculate bees in the next 9 months

As the prophecy dictates.

The Black Francis Pixie Popes?

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Dude is 76? When are we going to get some fresh Popes?

you think a new pope would embrace gay marriage??the baby steps for that happening is at least 3 popes away

 

[koby925]

He stepped down from Archbishop of Argentina for age reasons. Yeah, this gig should be easier.

They won't vote for a younger cardinal , it ties the seat .

Brown Francis and the ex-Pope?

 

[Nipsey]

Aliens throughout the galaxy must be so shuked right now. wth are these humans doing?

there's no way they can know about this yet. on the flipside, still time to get a bet in with them.

No papal action here but knowing +3300 just hit sticks in my craw nonetheless.

maybe time kibitzer is on to something

 

[koby925]

Newly elected Pope Francis -- Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina -- asked the Vatican City crowd to bless him as he starts his new "journey."

They need to get the expert Chris Harrison to interview Francis about his "journey"

[Parrothead]

The Pope Francis Browns and the Upper Deckers..

 

[Kal El]

I was actually thinking a few hours ago that it would be funny if the new pope was named Frank. Francis is close enough, I guess.

his friends will call him that.

Awesome! I'm not even Catholic, but I always wanted a pope Frank.

 

[Phil Elliott]

The papal "smoke stack" tweets?

Someone needs to record that and put it on youtube. I wonder how that would sound.

Supposedly he still runs a 4.2 and his routes are as crisp as his '05-'09 pro-bowl seasons. Whatever, I'm still not burning a pick on his wrinkly ### until the 10th round at the earliest.

 

[culdeus]

Please all non-Catholics , especially heathens, exit this thread so us serious Catholics can rejoice

I still don't understand how Romney didn't win the conclave. His internal polling showed him ahead the whole time.

nice

 

[Jewell]

The Pope has already asked three altar boys if they want to check out his staff.

 

[NCCommish]

Some of the jokes are good. But you know they had a real chance to bring a reformer. There were Cardinals just as disgusted as anyone else over the scandals. This church is just a running scandal at this point and to bring in this guy shows they are in no hurry to clean it up.

I still think Scala won Ohio.

 

[HellToupee]

I like the name Francis

this is a big upgrade over Benedict , you guys

 

[Slapdash]

The Roman Catholic Church is back baby!

 

[The_Man]

The bad news coming out of this is that all the Popechat combined with it being Lent is probably gong to make my wife feel like we have to go to church this weekend.

They think they're bigger than any government. I'm pretty sure God said something to the effect of making yourself subject to your nation's leaders, and I know He's said things about not doing horrible things to children.

I don't think you understand the Catholic church . Change happens over decades or even centuries.This is a big dtep from Benedict

A giant leap backwards

This is just a short term move, expect a more (relatively) revolutionary pope in the near future.

How is he different than Benedict other than his ethnicity?

why do you say this?

 

[HellToupee]

some people won't be happy until there is a new antipope

 

[HellToupee]

anyone listening to EWTN?

The Vatican is a soverign nation with no extradition treaty. Not much our government can do once they move the diddling priests over there.

 

[Limp Ditka]

Who's the current antipope? When/why does he get replaced? Is it even a he? I suppose it shouldn't be to solidify the 'anti' part of the title. And when this new antipope gets anointed, do they do it via a Proclave?

You ever see Benny's shoes? The new Pope would never wear anything that gay.Then agaIn, he is from Latin America so he probably has some flashy shoes in his closet.
