one of the candidates - he's belgian. i doubt he has much chance of becoming the next pope. but if he will, my grandmother will probably move to italy to become his groupie. ;-) i think the bookies said he was eight or something. he replied: "i'm not a horse."

My theory is the new pope himself will pop out of the chimney, and it'll be Dick Van Dyke.

There is no excuse for not posting the Pope Dan picture.

On the exchanges, big money for Francis "The Liberal's Nightmare" Arinze at 5/1. Ratzinger and Tettamanzi at 17/2, Hummes 19/2 Lustiger 16/1. Martini and Maradiaga at 18/1.

Outsiders attracting intesting bets: Vidal (Phillipines) 400/1, Wamala (Uganda) 350/1, Martins (Portugal) 110/1, Ruini (Italy) 50/1

Whenever I think of Ratzinger, I think of a Zinger Burger and my sister's belief that KFC is made from rats.

Come on, vote for me!

The man who enters a conclave as the bookies favourite leaves as a Cardinal.

Do they debate? Or is it just voting? Cos that can't take that long can it? I reckon they have bacchanalian orgies all day, then have a vote at the end to make the punters think they've been conclaving.

― Dave B (daveb), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 12:38 (twenty years ago)

they debate, there have been rumours that some cardinals have come to blows, im waiting for this one to take forever.

POPE FIGHT!!!! Awesome.

Anything but Ratzinger. What exactly is his excuse for being a member of Hitl3r Yoof?

― suzy (suzy), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 12:48 (twenty years ago)

they were all doing it (it was compulsory).

Entertainment value. (His, not ours.)

Debate, prayer and probably intense Survivor style orgy forming.

Let it also be noted I thoroughly approve of Pope Dan's canonical name, especially the implication that there will automatically be others later with the same name.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 12:50 (twenty years ago)

I'm enjoying the gasps of delight turning to groans as the watchers in St Peter's Square glimpse what they think is white smoke, and it gradually turns black.

― Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 12:52 (twenty years ago)

the hitler youth????? WHAT?

― piscesboy, Tuesday, 19 April 2005 12:58 (twenty years ago)

Do they debate? Or is it just voting?

They have a mass debate.

the hitler youth????? WHAT?

Cardinal Ratzinger was indeed a Hitler Youth member - but he says that it was only because from 1941-1945 membership was compulsary

(if you happened to live in Germany, natch)

― caitlin (caitlin), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 12:59 (twenty years ago)

fuck, its like something that burgess would write

ratzinger a narrative
hitler youth
communist
v2 social reformer
disenfranchised by baader mienhoff and other such nonesense
mild right
extreme orthodoxy/orthopraxis
to the toppermost of the poppermost(?)

From The Times:

He joined the Hitler Youth aged 14, shortly after membership was made compulsory in 1941.

He quickly won a dispensation on account of his training at a seminary. “Ratzinger was only briefly a member of the Hitler Youth and not an enthusiastic one,” concluded John Allen, his biographer.

Two years later Ratzinger was enrolled in an anti-aircraft unit that protected a BMW factory making aircraft engines. The workforce included slaves from Dachau concentration camp.

Ratzinger has insisted he never took part in combat or fired a shot — adding that his gun was not even loaded — because of a badly infected finger. He was sent to Hungary, where he set up tank traps and saw Jews being herded to death camps. He deserted in April 1944 and spent a few weeks in a prisoner of war camp.

I meant, Ratzenberger becomes Pope

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 19 April 2005 21:47 (twenty years ago)

Compulsory or not, it's still a little fucking strange that we have a Pope who once gave the one-armed salute to a portrait of Hitler.

by contrast, PJP II was in the Polish resistance... oh, the "moral leadership" I can only imagine Natzinger is capable of...

Dan represents the True Church now and forever.

― RS, Tuesday, 19 April 2005 22:49 (twenty years ago)

Dan was selected by GOD yet 150-odd cardinals voted and chose this bloke instead. Whether god wants him or not. Catholicism is a mug's game.
