Re: Jorge Bergoglio

Italian boy from Argentina. Is it too early to wonder about his families motivation for moving to South America?

LOL, but Argentina is full of European names.

He's an Argentinian educated also in Spain. I'd say he'll probably be yet another Conservative, White, European Pope.

Well of course he's conservative

John Paul II, with the help of his successor, Joseph Ratzinger (Benedict XVI) who was Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (aka The Inquisition) before he became Pope, purged the College of Cardinals of progressive thinkers. There are virtually only conservatives left.

You're right. the first article I read said he was born in 1958 but most since say he is 76.

I don't know, what do you think? The morg seems pretty amazingly strong against those worldwide Catholic membership numbers, huh?

Just what is it they are smoking that makes it so black or white? and why do they all have a glazed look on their faces when they come out.
