A black pope would be so conservative it would be quite a thing to watch.

He would want to set an example for some certain folks. Major chip on shoulder.

Im confused.

Hes saying hes tired of people (like Pope Francis) using the bible to JUSITFY immigration.

Hes against that.

He encourages people to thrive within their OWN culture.

Damn, it would be like having Clarence Thomas as Pope. Hope I'm wrong, but I just don't see the Globalists allowing a man like this to become Pope.

It’s time for a non binary woman of color to be pope.

He’s amazing, but I would be surprised if this group of cardinals selected him. Although, the fact that he’s 79 works in his favor.

The cardinals may be persuaded to pick someone seen as a uniter during this period of division, and still hedge their bet a bit by picking someone older.

Remember 79 is about as old as you can reasonably be and still be selected pope. They usually pick a new pope from within the College of Cardinals and you can’t be in the College if you’re over 80.

ETA: Cardinal Sarah is 79

No way a black pope is going to be so inviting to the gays

It's hard to believe that Francis was the first pope from South America. There are so many religious coming out of Africa that it's only a matter of time before there is an African pope.

I'm not Catholic, so I will not opine on church polity, but I did see that 108 of the 125 cardinals that will elect the next pope were appointed by Pope Francis.

This kind of thing is the most common situation. Francis was pope for 12 years. There's a lot of turnover at the top over that length of time. Benedict was pope for only 8 years, so he didn't get to do a full turnover prior to his (unusual) resignation. But John Paul II was pope for 26 years. He likely appointed every Cardinal who voted on his successor.

This is correct.

Some were extreme modernists, and never would have made Cardinal under Benedict or JP2

Not just them.

He would make white conservatives blush.
