Am smiling....you’re exatly right. I didn’t consider the “choice” they gave God...sheesh! So apparent too! But isn’t the selection of the next Pope rather like this...they put up those they determine worthy of the roll and then go thru the selction process....rather like drawing straws? What comes to mind is the blanket they toss outside the window once a Pope has been decided on. Guess I’ll have to look at that closer too.

I believe the Pope is also selected from a group. I'm not sure if "none of the above" is an option. And I believe they vote instead of casting lots.

Thank you for sharing your insights, dear brother in Christ!
