I’m sure you know the old adage: Don’t make the perfect the enemy of the good.

Or, as Chesterton put it: Anything worth doing is worth doing badly.

My point was: Don’t let the fact that the next Pope is likely to be terrible prevent you from praying for the death of Bergoglio.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

OK, now I understand. You may want to qualify your prayer though. Last thing any Catholic would want is his "martyrdom".
