I predict that the next pope will be from South America, Maybe having something to do with Olives. We have never had a south American as Pope.

This is apparently a recycled article from years ago. The current Pope is "the glory of the olive".

The true believers think he's "the glory of the olive" because he chose the regnal name Benedict after St Benedict of Nursia, founder of the Benedictine Order. The order's crest contains an olive branch.
