So they picked a new pope today. He’s from Argentina. He’s Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio. He’ll be known as Pope Francis. He’s 76 years old which means we’ll be going through all this in another 10 years or so. This is very conservative and has a terrible record for gay rights and other liberal things. He came in second when they selected Ratzinger. I don’t think his selection is going to change anything in the Catholic church. I think he is among the old guard who want to continue the church as it is now. Not that I care at all but it would have been nice to have a younger guy who is a bit more liberal and wants to have the church move into the 21st century and evolve. It won’t be happening anytime soon.
