Cardinal Timothy Dolan

[jimnyc]

There have been a few snippets here and there that he may be in the discussion for the next Pope. I of course think it would be cool because he would be from NY. I'd probably be just as proud if the next Pope came from anywhere in the States, and of course will ultimately be happy with whoever they choose.

Thoughts about Dolan? On who else you think may be next?

I think, based on precedent, they are more likely to go with Italian or at least European. The oddsmakers are still giving Bono 1000:1 and their current favorite is from Ghana.

Though I agree. It would be interesting if the next pope came from the U.S. I seriously doubt the rest of the World would agree.

Never can tell what those Cardinals, or Bishops might decide. White Smoke, or Black Smoke....Nobody knows.

If the Catholic Church had any sense, the next pope would be from South America. Since that is where the most fervent Catholic supporters are now.
Vatican insiders believe that a pope will never be chosen from a "power country" (i.e. the U.S. or another Western power). I am thinking the next pope will be either Italian or from Eastern Europe.

seeing my Godfather knows Cardinal Dolan and Cardinal O'Connor when he was with us, I can assure you he has no interest in assuming the Papacy.

You would do best Gabby to keep your non-intellectual Anti-Catholic hatreds to yourself..

Your Intolerance for us is duly noted.

Gabby. If you had any sense. You would have chosen to keep your idea's, and opinions to yourself. But then. Based on how your past here has been a checkered one. Nobody is surprised that you are once again, exposing your ignorance.

So it is OK to spew non-intellectual anti-Muslim hatred, but not OK to spew non-intellectual anti-Catholic hatred?

Were you a cloistered altar boy by any chance?

Yes, I was an Altar Boy when I was young and if you had any knowledge of the church you would know that only Catholic NUNS and MONKS are CLOISTERED.

Not Altar boys, as they are just volunteers from the Congregation and not full members of the clergy.

Your level of fail continues to rise. Your statement makes no sense...

[Robert A Whit]

Deacons in my church do the chores of Altar Boys I suspect.

Robert, did you ever get "extra attention" from your priest? That happens a lot in Catholic Church. More so past than present.

I am a Priest in the church and suppose you actually mean from a Bishop.

No, never has happened. Why, does your priest give you special attention?

We all know Gabby gets "NUN" at home.
