When does God get involved?
It’s His Church.
He is involved.
In what way is He not involved?
Or, more to the point, what about this article confuses you to the point where you assume that He is not?
He is already involved, and it's His decision.
Bookmakers, pundits, anti-Catholics, and others who think as men think (rather than as God thinks) ignore Him, of course.
Don't know? Ask the stripper who speaks in tongues at the "Church of the Howling Rosetta Stone".
Call Pastor Herb Tarlek first, though, as the schedule for services varies from week to week depending on what hours those with gifts will be working at the, "Budda Bing Club".
Nobody was betting on Karol Wojtyla back in 1978.
Nobnody would have bet a dime on Josef Ratzinger in 2005. (I was astounded: "What??" - too good to be true.)
So, since nobody's mentioning him, and as an American his chances are close to zero, let me say I want Card. Raymond Burke. Wonderful Canon Law expert, head of the Signatura, holy, prayerful, devoted to the defense of doctrine and the purity of religious life, Wants to precent manifest defiant unrepentant sinners (like pro-abort Catholic politicians.) from desecrating the Eucharist by unworthy reception. Go for it, Big Ray.
Veni Sancte Spiritu.
None believed seriously that a 78 year old shy small man like CArdinal RAtzinger would be made Pope.
None would have believed that a slavic bishop from a communist country would have been made pope in 1979
But it both happened -- due to the Holy Spirit working
So, expect a lot more speculation from the media and a lot more betting and expect the outcome to be unexpected.
