...wagers on papal elections, the duration of a pontificate, or the creation of new cardinals were all forbidden on pain of excommunication by Pope Gregory in his bull "Cogit nos", issued March 21, 1591.

Dear Salvation,

Okay, I haven't been paying much attention to this thread, so maybe I missed why this is happening, but when I refresh this thread near the bottom, a little box comes up in the lower right hand corder with the prayer for the conclave.

What's up with that?

Thanks,
