On the Pope's cassok why is there like ropes in the back?

This is Benedict - but I think these are what you are referring to:

I'd be assuming they help keep the mozetta (the cape) from flying around.

And I see dUSt has just beat me to.

I'm sorry, but that picture reminds me of the cones you put on a dog's head so it doesn't chew or lick itself after surgery...

On one hand, I feel sort of bad laughing at this at this.  On the other hand, that frilled neck lizard is exactly what came to my mind!  :hehe2:

There are many enemies of the papacy. Sometimes a threat display is necessary.

What I like best about the picture of Pope Francis and his flying cape is that he looks completely unperturbed about the whole thing. I'd be madly trying to get the cape back in place, but Pope Francis is simply continuing with business as usual as if there is nothing unusual happening. This is the ultimate definition of "cool" and I am VERY impressed!
