Reilly Posted April 19, 2005 Author Share Posted April 19, 2005 So hes delivering his speech... "The cardinals have elected me as a simple humble worker of the lord Im consoled by the fact that the lord knows how to act with sufficient instruments and most of all I trust in your prayers something of the lord, trustworthy of his trust" hhaha hes going too fast. Ok hes finished.... "Thank you." Now hes going to give some blessing... Yeah I think 78 is like WOAH too old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darlene_Ihnfsa Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 yes. :) as some sites says it means the Catholic church will go on traditional style.. i mean more or less the same as John Paul II :idea2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reilly Posted April 19, 2005 Author Share Posted April 19, 2005 Yeah now hes doing his SNORE blessing part. This guy looks really really old and unfit though. Will he even live for another decade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darlene_Ihnfsa Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 well other popes just live a few years.. John Paul II is one who lives longer.. that's not usual on Popes (they get to be Pope older so they live a few years).. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berrywoman Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 his age... probablysignifies that they dont want another pope to last 26 years.... but I am sure he will do a fine job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darlene_Ihnfsa Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 some profecies says that only will be 2 popes.. :stunned: and if this new one won't live as long as JPII... :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egghead Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 They picked him because they didnt want another "great" pope. they just wanted a filler while John Paul's legacy builds, or something stupid like that. and yeah, it was quick. it usually takes a week to elect a new pope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darlene_Ihnfsa Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 you are right kyle.. i think they choose him too fast.. :stunned: they didn't want to think a lot... :dozey: ... lazy... :dozey: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet One Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 First off, thanks to Reilly for the play-by-play. I enjoyed it thoroughly. :kiss: When he came out to greet the crowd, Justine, I said the exact same thing! He did look cute! :lol: And apparently, he's a super conservative guy who's said some really controversial things about homosexuality and abortion and stuff. Some people refer to him as a "bully"-type. Scary. But he looks cute. :lol: And with regards to how fast he was elected, according to the news, he was always the front runner because he was very close to Pope John Paul. I woke up to the news about the smoke. I thought it was so exciting. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
