I love listening to Cardinal Dolan speak. What a faith-filled man. I honestly find him comforting to listen to.

 

Cardinal Dolan's aw shucks type of personality is what has made him so popular. Some think such a persona would keep him out of papal consideration due to it not being dignified enough. Who knows.

I'd have to agree with that notion - not that I wouldn't like having a Pope with a personality like that, but that it would end up keeping him out of serious consideration.

Just thinking today while in church...that will probably be the last time I hear Pope Benedict mentioned in the context of the Mass. I can't recall back to 2005. What do priests say at Mass during the Eucharistic Prayer when the papacy is vacant?

I did hear a few times back then to pray for the conclave.

Wow. It's happening this week. Prayers for Pope Benedict. Prayers for the conclave.

Today, we prayed for Pope Benedict and for the conclave. Fr. R. said Wednesday would be the last day Benedict would be included (as Pope), but that they may pray for him in a seperate way. At least, I think that's what he said. You'll have to ask RTS or Mexitucky for verification on that. Although...Mex may not have caught that part as, as he was pretty busy hiding from lightning bolts related to his comments from earlier this week. :cool:

LOL

So...wouldn't it be great if cameras were allowed into the conclave and the whole process was turned into a reality show?

Very moving watching the Pope's final hours and seeing him leave the Vatican in the white helicopter.

We are officially sede vacante now correct?

 

Would love to see Cardinal Dolan or O'Malley get the fisherman's ring but I think the rest of the world is nnervous about the last superpower also providing the pope.

I'd like to see the ceremonial destruction of the ring.

Is anybody else picking up on the surprising amount of misinformation that's coming out of news outlets - especially on a local level? This morning Cincinnati's Channel 12 news reported that the only continents never to have a Pope are South America and Africa.
