With the pope just about to die, maybe we will find out if all these stories about him being the last pope are going to be true, although a few people do say weve got one more to go, or possibly another 2.

Who knows? :confused:

I thought there would be 2 more popes after him? - the second pope after him would betray mankind? did this pope say that?...I cant remember. :confused:

Nostradamus and a celtic prophet/priest predicted the lines of popes and what might happen when they all died.

Ben will probably know his name - i cant remember the name right now.

One more pope predicted by St. Malachy.
Supposedly the Catholic church added the last prediction.

thanks .Q.

that sounds right - i thought i had heard/read that a while back.

youve confirmed for me that i havent lost my mind.

well...theres anew pope so I guess that answers that question...and I think it should end this conversation, it is not wise to talk of the dead so soon after there death...so to speak

Actually not yet, the conclave hasnt started yet, but i am sure there will be a new pope by the end of the month.

Let's hope a woman gets the job.

Ben

i heard from somewhere, i dunno where so don't ask...i think it might've been from some prophecy somewhere floating around that the last pope was supposed to be called Peter and that after him it would be armaggeddon and....


i heard about that too...he was supposed to have an affair with a nun. :sick:

Influenced.

There's a chance that the next pope will be black. I dont see it as a big deal, but I know there's gonna be a lot of "christians" burning crosses.

news media was speculating on a black cardinal that seems to have a chance - might be helpful for africa they said .

seems like this would certainly expose any racist views in Chistiandom, another good thing.

but theyll probably avoid this fearing controversy

imagine white smoke signaling a black pope

How about an android pope, then they'll never have to worry about him dying or waste time about picking the new pope again.

Good one... android pope... Yup dave, that's an interesting point you make... I remember years ago reading that Africa has a huge Catholic following and soon they will have to think about an African pope... After all, Africa is about the only country where Catholisism is on the increase...

If they did chose an Afican pope, the article said that the form of catholisim in Africa is also 'different' in many ways to the western perception because in Africa, many followers have combined their tribal ways with the catholic belief... I reckon an African pope would be neat and certainly would make some of the stuffed up heirachy open their eyes...

Dingo
.

what are popes suppsoe to be are they sinners or what

I can see an android pope now, programmed to only believe in logical provable things...

Android pope: The idea of a God does not compute. *Gets pummeled and beat up by a mob*

I can see that happening.

I'm going to laugh when the supposed "Last Pope" comes and then after him another Pope. Why would there be a last Pope anyways? And if the last one's supposed to be a Peter, just don't give him a job.

Oh my gosh, the last Pope'll be Peter Griffin from Family Guy. Yep, we're all doomed now.

Why would there be a last Pope anyways? Is it blood or something?
