    According to the Cardinals, that's exactly what is happening.

    Seems a laborious and boring process! Though I suppose I shouldn't expect anything less from someone who made a bloke climb up a mountain for 40 days and nights to collect some stone tablets with writing on them.

    They need to modernize. Why not make it into a Simon Cowell-esque talent show spin off, make the Pope's perform various miracles on stage and let the public vote for who they want. We can add sob stories for effect as well. Call it Vatican's Got Talent - easy.
  • Been done. Water in wine every Sunday morning, never fails to impress!
  • No biggie. I turn lager into piss every Sunday morning.

    I suggested Pope Idol weeks ago - far more fun!!

    Though Papal Wipeout would be even better.
  • Pointless would be more apt.

  • There won't be any white smoke rising until they've finished burning all the centuries worth of paedo evidence, IMO.

    That'll be 10 Our Fathers and half a dozen Hail Marys Adam...or, alternatively, eternal damnation and a recurring season ticket at the spanners!!

    What a load of shit it really is. Why's it even news???

    Do they have a news flash when Disney announce its next cartoon movie star??

    Load of old make believe bollocks.
  • Ha ha, can't help but disagree Gary. But it's news because it is, for some bizarre reason, important to 1.2 billion people.
  • Gary...why are Z-list wannabes news...x factor, reality (really!!!) tv freaks on the front pages of every rag & photo-comic??

    You stick with those & several hundred million will check this out.

    God bless ;)

    Haha Stig, good work on the Seb pic!
  • Vg it is news mate the head of the catholic church world wide it may not be news you find interesting but news it is pal

    The pope is a big deal it's a hugely important position to a huge amount of people

    Only 265 people before today have been pope vs the millions and millions of baptised men that have been born in that time

    I ain't a catholic but it is pomp and ceremony that I enjoy like the royals and the Palpal appointments steeped in history and tradition that I can sit back and enjoy and think we ate very lucky to witness such things
  • Far too sentimental for you nla!!!!

    I just think in this day an age with the scientific discoveries we have made, that religion should play a much minor role in daily life but for a large amount of people and their societies it seems to control it. To me that's ridiculous.
