I am trying to put all the facts in one place.

There has been coverage of the Papal Interregnum and Election Procedures and stuff about the Cardinals printed by the secular media.

But much of it has been in error, or to say the least, biased toward the liberal media's point of view.

This is strictly facts from a well known and respected Catholic site. There is too much here to post everything of interest, but hopefully I have hit the highlights.

If you wish to post anything else, please do so, or FReepmail me with the url and I will be glad to put it up.

Continue to pray for the Colllege of Cardinals.

May they submit totally to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Great job! I'm tired of hearing network airheads drone on about this like it's a presidential election. They cannot fathom the spiritual aspects at all.

Yes, May the Holy Spirit give us a Good & Faithful servant!

[Gerish]

May they submit totally to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

AMEN - AMEN - AMEN AND AMEN!!!

I have a little seed of doubt, but it is small and I am praying and hoping the Holy Spirit will guide the conclave.

May they submit totally to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

"Come, Holy Ghost, God and Lord!"
by Martin Luther, 1483-1546

1. Come, Holy Ghost, God and Lord!
Be all Thy graces now out poured
On each believer's mind and heart;
Thy fervent love to them impart.
Lord, by the brightness of Thy light,
Thou in the faith dost men unite
Of every land and every tongue;
This to Thy praise, O Lord, our God, be sung.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

2. Thou holy Light, Guide Divine,
Oh, cause the Word of Life to shine!
Teach us to know our God aright
And call Him Father with delight.
From every error keep us free;
Let none but Christ our Master be
That we in living faith abide,
In Him, our Lord, with all our might confide.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

3. Thou holy Fire, Comfort true,
Grant us the will Thy work to do
And in Thy service to abide;
Let trials turn us not aside.
Lord, by Thy power prepare each heart
And to our weakness strength impart
That bravely here we may contend,
Through life and death to Thee, our Lord, ascend.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Beautiful work. Thanks.

Amazing statement from Cardinal George reported this a.m. - when asked at a press conference whether the Church would ease up its restrictions on condom use now, he said: "Your solution to AIDS is to exterminate the poor?"

I'm impressed.
