Pope has resigned

[RichD]

I'll even amend that ^ to this:

I'm willing to wager that this Conclave will vote for and choose a new Pope well before Easter. And it will be either an African or an Asian or a Latino Pope. $50 cash that must be put up for Xavier to hold ahead of time, as specified before.

Any takers to wager against me?

they have already indicated that they wil meet form the 15-18th to chose a pope

[WitchyOoman]

Mi may tek di bet if yuh throw in ah ooman.

"ah woman" ..... no further specifications that that? Sure. Done. I choose said woman.

You still want to take that bet? Is this your final word, j-kid? mind what you wish for, as you might get it

Have they? Well, I am not surprised.

The Roman Catholic Church are an Easter People. We must have a Pope for Easter.
The only thing that would prevent that would be the sudden death of a Pope just before Easter, not giving enough time (including the mandatory 9 days mourning before a conclave can be called) to elect a new Pope.

This is not such a case.

Most of the Cardinals are already in Rome. The rest would have come, anyhow, in a few more weeks, just before Holy Week, for the distribution of the year's worth of holy oil, etc. So now they'll just come earlier, and stay longer - that's all.

Don't act stupid, now. There's no egg hunt at the Vatican.

And let me tell you something else - there isn't one single Catholic church within my particular area (not saying my whole Archdiocese of Newark, NJ - dunno about that, just talking about the Oranges) that does such foolishness, but there are plenty of Protestant churches hereabouts that do it. Just sayin'... Of course, there are also plenty of Protestant churches 'round here that properly denounce it as Pagan, also. But none of our local Catholic churches do that nonsense. And my church's school sure as hell doesn't do it! (Although, they might dye eggs in the kindergarten class as an arts & crafts project...)
