The next pope will be European. If they put an African it'll kill the religion even faster. A latin American will also cheapen it. Most people in the world are brainwashed into white superiority especially religious people. The moment you put in a non white is the moment they realize how fake the religion must be. So they have to have a European to keep that image of being heavenly and 'God like'.
the resigning the Pope is suspect because of the allegations of another sex scandal. http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-3480_162-6272743.html
LOL. yeah no doubt. People before the story broke was wondering why quit. they were going around saying this never happened in 100's of years...well HHHMMMM.
People should also check this guy out, massive story over here. Again someone close to the Pope. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/feb/23/cardinal-keith-o-brien-accused-inappropriate
To hell with the Catholic Church. The higher echolons have given sanctuary to child raping priests. To no suprise the former pope Benedict is also a molester. People who still are members of the Catholic Church are quite frankly ignorant fucks who support child molestors. Only because they dub themselves "Men of god" are they allowed to continue their criminal organization. This is talking about the church in modern times. I don't give a fuck who gets offended by my anti Catholic rant.
There are a couple of top ranked Cardinals from Africa that are leading candidates for the position of Pope. Putting a African in there is a good distraction from all of the heat the Catholic Church has gotten in the past 10 years. Mofos attention would go from scandals to a Black Pope overnight.
are there any catholics here? Can you give us insight into why you still believe in this institution? It has a well-documented history of horror upon horror, racism, the inquisition, magdelene asylum, etc., and now even the pope is rumored to have protected priests who relished in taking the innocence of children. This, even as they condemn people for stuff like homosexuality and using condoms.. These are supposed to be the representatives of jesus on earth, people you go in the booth and confess your sins to... I mean, this was even hitler's religion, and the retiring pope benedict was, in his youth, a member of hitler youth. Exactly what is so holy about the church that makes you hang in? I'm not judging, just looking for insights.
true. it might be a good way for the church to hit the "reset" button. If there was any integrity at all, they would be happy to lose all those people who don't really believe in good will and the brotherhood of men.
A Black man won't save the catholic church, they can't pull an Obama-Pope out the hat and party like its 2008, the organisation needs to answer for its MANY MANY crimes.
I didn't say or even imply Obama is saving America, but in 2008 the whole world and his dog LOVED America just for voting him in. They can't wheel out a black Pope to pull the same trick is what I'm saying. Now maybe if the truly god fearing and good doing cardinals and bishops start burning the pedophile priests at the stake medieval-witch-hunting-style that might start to improve public relations. In all seriousness a witch-hunt of sorts is exactly whats needed to cleanse that sexually deviant, cult-like, greedy, cuntish, hateful, sexually dysfunctional, manipulative, law breaking, dangerously secretive, authoritarian, predatory, self-righteous, megalomanic and charlatan cesspit of pure unadulterated filth.
It makes me livid that an organisation supposed to be about Love, unity and peace has done and continues to do so much evil and nothing is Done about it.
The bible also speaks in favour of slavery and the prohibits the eating of shell fish. Divorce is not the great diesease of our time its merely the symptom, bad marriages are the real problem.
