EXCERPT:

ROME — The papal conclave to elect the new leader of the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics will begin on Tuesday afternoon, a Vatican spokesman announced.

Cardinals will enter the closed meeting after holding a special Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica in the morning, Father Federico Lombardi said in a statement Friday.

Apart from eating and sleeping, they will not be allowed to leave the conclave until they have chosen who will succeed Pope Benedict XVI, who announced his abdication on Feb. 10 and formally ended his papacy on Feb. 28, citing his increasing physical frailty.

Cardinals have been holding closed-door meetings this week in Rome to plan a date for the conclave.

They can really increase their membership if they just make Obama their pope. He can be Pope Dickus I.

Of course, the papacy would have to change their positions on birth control and gay marriage but Obama would send their membership roles soaring.
