Tell-All Book Predicts Next Pope
Church Militant ^ | June 25, 2020 | Jules Gomes

Posted on 06/26/2020 11:46:34 AM PDT by Marchmain

A revealing book by a veteran Vatican journalist is kickstarting prognostications about Pope Francis' successor by shortlisting the most eligible cardinals likely to fill the shoes of the fisherman.

The first of its kind, Edward Pentin's meticulously researched handbook to the next conclave provides a panoramic and penetrating study into the theological, doctrinal, liturgical, moral and social beliefs of 19 front-runners for the papacy.

The Next Pope: The Leading Cardinal Candidates, published by Sophia Institute Press, names Tridentine Mass traditionalists like American cardinal Raymond Burke alongside Austrian cardinal Christoph Schönborn, who promotes "blasphemy" through heavy metal Masses and homosexual activism.

Among the 19 papabili are two traditionalists, seven liberals and ten conservative candidates.

"At a conclave, it's usually not just the faithful who have little or no knowledge of a prospective pope. Perhaps, surprisingly, neither do the cardinals who are voting for him," Pentin, who has covered the Vatican for 17 years, revealed.

It will be Cardinal Sicola of northern Italy.

His title will be Pope Sicola.

At the risk of sounding blasphemous, I fear there will be NO successor to Francis.

Pepsi should really be marketing the best new salesperson for the company.

I’m surprised that they haven’t been taking advantage of the Trump movement.

I thought we were going to have our first French Pope:

Pope Paree.

There are those that claim that last real Pope was Pope Pius the XII.

You would be in good company.

Do you really expect the people who put THIS “pope” in to swing right?

Cardinal Angelo Scola, Italy: In a recent speech to twentysomethings in Italy, Scola showed hipster cred of sorts by quoting Jack Kerouac and Cormac McCarthy. In his 2005 book The Nuptial Mystery, however, he alienated both feminists and the gay community by arguing, as the liberal Catholic magazine Commonweal put it, “that feminism is responsible for homosexuality, because the more women act like men, the more men are likely to want to have sex with other men.” Right. For those of you who still care what he has to say about the environment after that doozy, consider his elegantly stated thoughts in a 2010 article called “Protecting Nature or Saving Creation?”:

It will be Pietro Parolin.
“Peter the Roman” and the Pope during the end times per the prophecy of St. Malachy.
Francis is not mentioned in the prophecy because Benedict is still the true pope.

There’s only one Tell-All Book and it reveals the next Father is the same as the Father that’s always been Father and always will be Father.

I feel the same. I posted something similar a few weeks ago. We will know in our lifetime if that happens.

I would still like to know why Pope Benedict stepped down. I know it was not for the reason he said.

Maybe we can find the complete list. This wasn’t complete at all.

One could argue that there was not successor the Benedict.
