to achieve his five-year plan

Commies always have been big on those 5 year plans.

Pope John Paul II was the last true Pope.

He was always too ecuminical for my tastes - although I agreed with his politics.

Benedict was much better about keeping the lines clear between his followers and those of us in the Reformed camp.

Soon to be three simultaneously living popes?

It sounds like a strange time in history.

I would be a better Pope & I’m Jewish.

Agree. Him resigning would be most unusual. Ceding power isn’t usually in the commie playbook.

Hm. My vote would be for Strickland. Or Fr Stinson out of FSSP. It’d be a cool way to pick up (Catholic only) chicks!, having an Uncle for a Pope!

Yes, Vigano is our thought leader.

This Pope is reportedly strong as a horse and is good to go for another seven years of mayhem.

“Pope John Paul II was the last true Pope.”

St. John Paul II, since he has many miracles, over 100.

Pope Benedict XVI is the present true Pope. He will become a the next Doctor of the Church. Sadly, Bergoglio prevented us from hearing wonderful Sunday homilies by Benedict XVI over the last seven years. That blocking of his homilies really is a crime.

The Vatican choosing his replacement from the Church of Satan’s current membership roster would be an improvement over this wicked devil.

I’m just afraid one of his cronies will be elected and there is even more dismantling of the Faith.

Idle speculation? The usual unnamed source baloney?

Or have "they" picked a successor. Someone similar but younger?

Just no Irish or American Popes please. Both counties produce awful clergy.

PJP II was Pope Paterno. Like Paul VI he overlooked a load of sexual abuse and corruption in the Church. The Church also saw a decline in much of the ancestrally Catholic counties in Europe and Latin America under “Saint” John Paul’s reign.
