Title: Pope Watch 2013
Post by: pmull on March 12, 2013, 03:21:42 PM
The results of the first papal vote are in: Black Smoke. No new pope yet.

Quote
Black smoke poured out of the chimney above the Sistene Chapel today, signalling that the first vote for a new pope did not succeed in settling on a new pontiff.

Few expected the first vote to determine the next pope and the black smoke was not a surprise. The next vote by the Catholic cardinals is expected to be held on Wednesday.

I wonder if Vegas has odds on who the new pope will be?

No Pope on this mornings vote. Blacksmoke again.

Vote number 4 is expected at approximately 11:45 CT.

I wonder how many is normal to elect a pope?

The funny thing is, I told a co-worker the day before, "Why don't we ever have a pope with a regular name, like Frank?" A day later, we  have Pope Francis. If you like to shorten names, I predicted correctly.  :lol2:

I am surprised Jesse Jackson and friends have not protested yet that we have not had a black pope. Maybe the cardinals should put a Rooney Rule in place like the NFL.
