    Even though he wasn't implicated in any attrocities, I still don't feel comfortable with a Pope who was in the Hitler Youth movement.

    Will the Panzer Cardinal be the Panzer Pope?

    Wow. I can't believe it was so fast. I REALLY hope it's not Ratzinger. Although Nigeria's Arinze, who I sort of like, is also really conservative. I know they're not going to pick a progressive, but I really don't want a reactionary.

    You want someone who looks papal? Why not John Paul II's twin:

    I wonder what the new guy will chose for his "Pope Name"? Pope P. Diddy I has a nice ring to it.

    Unless you are Catholic, it doesn't matter who the Pope is.

    They are going to need Isringhausen to close out for this dude. He doesn't have much longer to go.

    The pope gets to pick it. He should've been Pope Du Hast.

    I was just going to post that. I don't care who the new Pope is but I find the selection of the new one interesting although I don't care who it is.

    It is picked by looking a previous popes they admire and one's who's "agenda" they would like to mirror.
