Apparently so. Including you.


At this rate , I actually see us proclaiming craig as antipope!

Round 2. Which one is craig and which one is me?

The language of these posts sound more like craig than your previous ones. Anyway, the substance of the first one doesn't seem like something he'd say. The second one does. To quote Huxley: "The personality of man is far less monolithic than the theologians were compelled by their dogmas to assume. The soul is not the same as the Spirit, but is merely associated with it. In itself, and until it consciously chooses to make way for the Spirit, it is no more than a rather loosely tied bundle of not very stable psychological elements."


THE CHIMNEY IS INSTALLED!

There was no substance in either post.

catholic sources here in italy are heavily pushing rumors that the conclave will be a very short one, some major catholic personalities are claiming it almost certainly won't last more than 3 days and very probably will be done in 2.

...based on what though?

Also are you in Rome? Could you report live to us?

No I am in Bologna.

It's based on the narrative they are spreading that basically the voting cardinals are aligned with what they care about and so will easily find an agreement on who to nominate.

No idea how true that is, but this is being pushed a lot by media here.

I suppose the fact that 108/135 of the voting cardinals have been made cardinals by Bergoglio plays a role in that


On a recent Piers Morgan Uncensored broadcast, Eastern Orthodox Philosopher and Apologist Jay Dyer thought that Katy Perry would be an ideal Pope.

According to Dyer, Pope Frances' reign drove many Roman Catholics to Eastern Orthodoxy.

rituals take 3x the time in the orthodox church


The Orthodox church advocates that the kissing of icons of saints is necessary for salvation if you are part of the visible church.

So you will not be saved unless you kiss an icon of the saints.

The idea that orthobros present themselves as a more sane Catholic church makes me laugh.

The invisible church would be people saved outside the church, like the people who have never had any contact with Christianity but that people said would be saved (separating the goats from the lamb).

As they have no contact with the Gospel they would not be required to perform the sacraments.


Well, the guys in the conclave that starts in a few hours had plenty of contact with the Gospel I bet! 😀


SO IT BEGINS!

I guess "don't hold your breath" would be an appropriate figure-of-speech here.
