So... Pope Benedict XVI...
Edited on Tue Apr-19-05 12:30 PM by SmileyBoy
I wish it could've been Arinze. Yes, he's conservative, but he's black. I wish they could've elected a black Pope.

Personally, as a Muslim, I don't care who's the Pope, nor do I give a crap about what the Pope does. They could elect Schlomo Goldberg as Pope and I wouldn't care...

Oh well...

4. I am not catholic
but I was also hoping for Arinze. It would have sent a strong message of progress. I don't get that from this choice.

5. Pope Benedict XV was a great man of Peace
hopefully he chose this name to follow by example, as a Man of Peace...
