We got a new Pope, and I don't feel any different.

well, if it makes you feel any better… i’m a Catholic, and i feel slightly depressed.

yeah, i’m a flaming liberal. whaddaboutit?

maybe it’s a sign of my possessing latent Talents after all – i just recently bought a couple nice Wands through eBay. i’ve often said that if i ever left the church, it would probably be to turn Pagan.

Oh, I thought it was something different around the eyes but now that you mention it … looks good.

Well, I feel different.

'Course, I always feel different.

There is a new pope? I had no idea. What happened to the old one?

It involves yarn. And yogurt.
It was an accident.
It wasn’t my fault!
I don’t wanna talk about it.
I’m so depressed.

Just wait till he declares the new Crusade, then things will get more…exciting… :smiley:

I assumed an elderly white conservative male would be elected.
Therefore it came as no surprise.

The only reason I care in the least is what I’m hearing about Benny’s being a fundy conservative type. I just don’t even want to consider what kind of trouble he’s going to stir up in our newly faith-ensorceled States.

I can just imagine Bush taking anything he says as literal gospel really going to town on chopping up human - sorry - liberal values.

I’m not Catholic but I am surprised at posters who are dismissive of the spiritual leader of 1 billion people. Even though it’s not your faith, his election is very significant in world affairs.

Ditto for having knowledge about leaders in China.

*I * noticed too, but I was afraid to mention anything. I thought maybe you were pregnant, but I was concerned about the awkward silence that would ensue if I said something, and was wrong. 'Cause that happened to me once.

Pregnant? No. Some would call it a beer gut, but I prefer to think of it like when you have a tool like mine, you gotta build it a shed. :cool: :smiley:
