how about we name the next pop after one who saw a need to begin the defensive wars known as the crusades?

I'd as soon have another Urban, all of that name have had a history of hostility to muslims.

I'm keeping my mobile phone with me at all times. Should I get the call from Rome, be prepared for Pope Bubba.

How do you like the associations Reuters makes with "conservatism":

"rejected democracy"; "rejected modern liberal politics" (OK, not so bad); "autocratic".

I don't know why I bother complaining...I should be used to it by now.

[ "Simon changed his name to Peter, which means rock," he added. "Because Christ said he was the rock on which he would build the Church." ]

Almost correct....
"Because Christ said he was "A" rock on which he would build the Church."

After John Paul, George would logically be next ;)

Actually, there has never been a Pope George before....

The first pope known to have changed his name was John II in 533. He was previously called Mercury but thought the Christian pontiff should not have the name of a pagan Roman god.

I think that 'Pope Mercury Marquis Brougham' would be perfectly appropo.

After two John Pauls, I think the next pope should be George Ringo.

Perhaps it WILL be Cardinal Ratzinger and he will choose the name Josephus. I read from a good source (I am sure it was a Saint such as Catherine) that toward the final days on earth there would be a great renewal in devotion to St. Joseph.
