Funny you should say that...here's an exchange I had with PaddyPower.com, a betting agency in Ireland, last Monday:

>>Hi,
>>Thank you for your mail,
>>We will not be adding Bono to the list for next Pope im afraid,
>>although if you wish to back him we will offer you a price of 500-1,
>>you can call dial a bet at 1800 721 821 (irl) or 08000 565 265 (uk)."
What's weird is, at the time, they were giving odds of 1000-1 for a 'Father Dougal Maguire of Craggy Island' so apparently they weren't prepared to totally rule Bono out...

My money's on Jaime Lucas Ortega y Alamino (Cuba) in the 4th by a T.K.O.
-
Mine wasn't a joke though. I'm sure it's somewhere in the Bible....Book Of Revelations?
Now this is a joke. What's funnier than Liverpool losing to Manchester City on Saturday?
Manchester United losing to Norwich City! Now that is funny.

Okay Mankie, I've done the research, and here's the result. This is no joke! Go to The Book Of Revelations, Chapter 12, Verse 6......
And God told Joseph, stay clear of the city of miserable bastards and unfit birds, for there are no men of wisdom nor women of crossed legs.
You can not argue with the Bible mate!

I'm sure he was talking about Liverpool, even the Pope got the hell out of the shithole rapidly when he visited.

I predict that a fresher, MTV-age Pope will be chosen. Why??? Well, they've already pimped the Popemobile.

How long did the Pope stay in Sodom, errrr, I mean Manchester?
How about those Reds making it to the quarterfinals against Chelsey? Not bad for a bunch of underachievers. Maybe when that great Mancunian, Malcolm Glazer, takes control of United, you'll do better in the Champions League!? Nah, I doubt it. :D

Are the final numbers in yet for how many Italians your scumbags murdered last night? I think they were trying to beat the record of 39 set 20 years ago.
The good news is, there's going to be an English team in the final....the bad news is it's either chelski or scum. I'm hoping scum to be honest because they have no hope of beating AC Milan, who should stroll into the final now....not much hope of beating chelski either unless they keep Gerrard off the park, he's already scored his first goal for his new team in the 'nobody gives a toss' cup final so no point in giving him his second.
If Glazer gets United I will probably lose all interest in the sport......hurling looks interesting.
All joking aside though, if United don't get their shit together...it's going to be like lambs to the slaughter against Newcastle on Sunday.

i should be pope....
if i become a priest now...by the next "pope picking" i might be eligible!!! think about that
pope flawd: leader of all the catholics. i bet the pope could get a lot of ass! :)

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
What a set-up!!!
Good one there, O'Mankie. ;)
You know, Flawd might be onto something. According to, whatever, the next Pope or the one after that is supposed to be some insider Satanist planted into position to bring down the Catholic church. As if they aren't doing a good enough job of it already!
-
i almost got over it...now i have to go back to my shrink...i cant believe what those bastards did to me :( :D
i was thinking a steel cage match. three cardnals enter, and one pope emerges!
they can fuck mike tyson and have it the same day as his fight! with all the catholics and people in the world...the church would make a fuck load of more money. and still collect that sunday at mass!!!

BENEDICT XIV!!!!!

at least he's old, so he'll die soon... right??
-
Why is he Benedict XIV? Not Ratzenger I?
-
it's good to see that ex-nazis have a place in the church
-
yes. it's an organization with a great future, you know, that welcomes nazis but shuns gay people and makes sure women have at best a fringe role in its business...

i was hoping for a more old skool name, like celestine or boniface or callixtus or sixtus. he could of been sixtus vi.

It was compulsory to join at that time. Read the article at the Times (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2089-1572667,00.html)
for more information. I wouldn't consider him a Nazi.

i know, i was being sarcastic ... still though, there were germans who looked past their herd mentality and dissented ... i guess i just hoped that the moral voice of more than a billion people could have been one of them

??Resistance was truly impossible,? Georg Ratzinger said. ??Before we were conscripted, one of our teachers said we should fight and become heroic Nazis and another told us not to worry as only one soldier in a thousand was killed. But neither of us ever used a rifle against the enemy.?
Some locals in Traunstein, like Elizabeth Lohner, 84, whose brother-in-law was sent to Dachau as a conscientious objector, dismiss such suggestions. ??It was possible to resist, and those people set an example for others,? she said. ??The Ratzingers were young and had made a different choice.?
------------------------------
that's kinda what i was referring to, but in all honesty i don't think it's a huge deal, the guy was a product of his times, much like people who grew up in the jim crow south ... i would just have more respect for him if he dissented rather than went with the flow

Originally posted by HoyaSaxa03:

I would have settled for his having learned something about the downside of rigid ideological purity from the experience.

EXCELLENT point. I'm disappointed, but really, would they ever nominate a Pope that made me happy? I don't think so...Archbishop Thomas McCarick wasn't in the running.

beautifully said...

at his coronation, they all high stepped, put hands up in the air, and yelled "Zig Heil! (sp?)"
this is all such bullshit...no matter what...
-
I'm not sure of the answer, but I can tell you a drunken, 80-year-old biker at my local bar didn't like the name. Seems Ratzinger should've chosen something more patriotic, since it was too close to Benedict Arnold for his liking. I heart America.

Robert Blake has announced that he's currently rather destitute. He's so poor, in fact, that, yesterday, he had to go back into Denny's to retrieve his pistol.
