    i might want to assert that is blind lack of expertise for the successor of St. Peter. different denominations of Christians have self belief for some strange reason that we worship him or something. What they fail to confirm is he's the chief of Christ's church on earth, he's quite fueled by technique of the Holy Spirit at the same time as talking infallibly which i don't have self belief has got here about in something like 60 years. he's purely the chief who leads the flock to our Heavenly Father, purely and Earthly representative. i hit upon maximum human beings of the human beings who do mock or hate the Pope to in a lot of circumstances be thoroughly faulty of their very own Christianity and faith. As maximum Catholics recognize we are the only Church Christ all started, yet the different denominations deny this consequently lack the expertise from the Holy Spirit about who the Pope quite is to Catholics and somewhat the entire international.

  • There's talk about Cardinal Arinze, but while he'd be a wonderful Pope, I doubt it will be him since he is already 80 years old.

    Cardinal Turkson, Cardinal Ouellet and Cardinal Scola are the other three that make up the "top 4", but it could be any Catholic, unmarried male that could become Pope.

    The next Pope will be Catholic, male, over 50, no children, well-educated, church-goer, no convictions(legal-wise), friendly to cardinals (not the baseball team), quite healthy, no known vices.

    Have no idea, but hope they will be more progessive and proactive than the last one.
