I doubt it. It will be subtle than that.

Shinmen Takezo · Mar 13, 2013

Pope "Shinmen" the first.

LightEcho · Mar 13, 2013

Pomp and poop for the pope.....

The Paypal conclave is adjourned.

Lurker · Mar 13, 2013

What if this guy goes by something like 'Bob Smith' and not Peter the Roman? Does that nullify all the prophecy? Now what will we be able to insubstantially freak out about?

No, doesn't work that way. Does he "fit", not necessarily actual Papal name taken.

Pius XIII would send an interesting message...

I had the same thought...

Boy, that was quick.

I had a feeling it would be. There is something prophetic about all of this.

zookeeper9 · Mar 13, 2013

Actually it was not terribly quick. There is listing somewhere on the number of ballets taken for the recent popes. I will see if I can find it and post it here.

Like I said on TOL, $20 it's a black guy to appease the PC world.

Oh yeah.... Pope Guido Sarducci I

Lurker · Mar 13, 2013

About 10 minutes before they announce him.

WildDaisy · Mar 13, 2013

My bet is still on Turkson or Scola, but a chance it could be Schoenborn. I'd be shocked if someone else, but a possibility. Anyone's game really as opposed to last time when Ratzinger was expected.

My bets are Turkson, Scherer and maybe Bertone.

Wise Owl · Mar 13, 2013

It's been ten mins now. So who got the big new hat and gold ring?

Lilbitsnana · Mar 13, 2013

crowd seems not super happy with choice.

a Franciscan (nope, Franciscus...his Papal name) heard it wrong

George Gregorio Argentina butchered spelling
