Gus > Who will be the next pope?

I was wondering why they haven't already elected Ratzinger. A few days ago he had 50 out of 77 votes so it looked like a cinch. But something happened. What?

I now feel that the paedos in the selection committee chickened out because they feared an Inquisition. But if they vote for a liberal who supports gays, abortion, women's rights and birth control all Hell will break loose. So now there's an impasse.

And all this in the name of God. What a circus.

Well, you were wrong, no Lustiger.

Ratzinger in.

I hope you had a lot of money riding on this.
