Are listening to Limbaugh’s show today? A very interesting guy talking about the selection and who he thinks should not be choose. I am fascinated by what the guy is saying.

Rush said this, just yesterday:

....I would say the Catholic Church is on its way to irrelevancy if it doesn't start distancing itself from the Democrat Party and the idea that liberalism equals charity. Because liberalism does not equal charity, and that's how the church got sucked into supporting Democrats. Not just the Catholic Church, but all religions got sucked in to supporting the Democrat Party and all these movements, all these social causes, because they began to equate government largesse with charity. And it isn't.

It would certainly be very interesting if the new Pope were Italian, and either named Peter or chose the name Peter.

Not likely, though.

Rush was hoping (earlier) it would be Cardinal Dolan, FWIW.

When I first heard the news of a new Pope, I posted a vanity thread going with the words WHITE SMOKE! Glad you posted this thread. :)

Why all the excitement about a new Pope?

This man is 266th in an unbroken line of successors to St. Peter. Essentially, he is the "vicar of Christ" on earth. He is a spiritual father for all of us. His first title is Servant of the servants of God.

The word pope actually means "papa". The excitement is with everyone wondering which of the 115 cardinals was elected. A papal election is not like a secular one. It is just the reverse; none of the cardinals wants to take on this tremendous responsibility. The one elected is asked: "Do you accept"? Once he does, he gives up the service he gave in his previous post and now takes a new name.
