Era Might

No more guessing, you will be held to your pick in this thread, so if you go back on it you will be hunted down and thrown into the Tiber.

 

I'm saying Cardinal O'Malley of Boston.

The chances are low, but Burke. O'Malley is a good choice simply because he is Irish, but I like Burke.

I have been predicting Ouellet as Benedict xvii for ages now. :) Hoping for Burke or Ranjith though.

Is this who we would like or who we think it will be?

 

I went with "like."

 

If I actually knew a lot more about the various cardinals, perhaps I would be tempted at beating the Holy Spirit to the punch.

 

I'm sure I speak for everyone on here when I say we'll all be excited whoever may be chosen. :pope: :crusader2:

This is untrue. If Mahoney is elected we will all be in a state of depression and there will be no excitement at all. :P

Indeed. Dolan would be pretty good, but I have some reservations about him. I like Burke, and I like what I have seen so far from Cardinal O'Malley (Though I am biased since he is Irish AND a Capuchin).

At this point, I refuse to speculate.  There was an article in the paper stating that the Cardinals are reportedly vetting the candidates very closely and that anyone who has any connection to any sex scandal is reportedly out of the running.
