I find it HIGHLY unlikely that Bergoglio or someone like him wasn’t going to be elected eventually. I find it equally unlikely that the next conclave will elect someone much different than Bergoglio. So far there is NOT ONE Cardinal who stands out as a winner. Chances are, he will be worse.
Only God can sort this out.
Surely you know that being a Cardinal is not a prerequisite for becoming Pope.
I don’t disagree with a word you just wrote.
I just don’t see that as an argument against praying for the death of this one. And the next, and the next, and the next.
They’ll have to run out of them eventually.
