What of Robert Prevost, an American cardinal? I won't be surprised if it goes to him, maybe he is the reason, bull of America flew to Vatican to attend funeral.

No matter how much Jesus love and use black people, he can never make a black man pope.

Even if the tithe and offering of black people is as much as the grains of sand on earth, a black man will never become pope.

Never say never.
In your wildest dreams, do you think a black could ever Rule America before?
But Barack Obama did it !

A black man can not be pope because black Africans as a whole are not emancipated.

A black man as pope will bring his tradition into the papal office.

Be sure rituals and ritualist and native doctors will start to thrive.

The way leadership is done in Nigeria is an example.

Am not a Christian, but you are not being fair with this your statement to the African Christians.

Did Robert same-sex? No.

It was mere allegations that, HE COVERED UP FOR, PRIESTS WHO ABUSED AND ENGAGED IN HOMOSEXUALITY [/b]and not that, he himself ed it, meanwhile, the allegations never substantiated.

Don't forget the late pope himself, accused of same allegations.

Lolss,
Nigerians and Complaints of Robbing.

Dat's we claimed Okocha was robbed to favour Samuel Eto.
Or dat Davido was robbed for GRAMMY Awards to favour that Girl Tyla.

And you might be surprised this guy is a Tinibu er o.

How was Cardinal Arinze Robbed pls?
Was he the Pope before?
Some Nigerians always attached emotions and entitlement to so many things.
It was clearly mentioned that Papal process would be followed.
Called Conclave and someone in a slum village believed Arinze would just be voted for by All the Cardinals.
Hmm! we have a long way to go in of of rationality.

My guess is that a conservative will be the Pope. It's been a trend of 'conservativism' across the world. Probably Burke, Eijk or the moderate Parolin.

This last pope is hard to convince us he was christ led. Many of his policies were antichrist in nature. May God help them to choose the right one with less controversial policies

He actually portrayed the true essence of Christ by not taking a hard-line posture on perceived "sinners", hence he forgave and welcomed them with love.

LIES ...... YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CATHOLIC CHURCH.

THE NEXT POPE IS NOT EVEN ON THOSE PICTURES.

BUT BELIEVE ME, THE NEXT POPE WILL BE EUROPEAN AND ITALIAN. NA THEM GET THE CHURCH.

EVEN THE SO CALLED ARGENTINA POPE (LATE POPE FRANCIS) WAS AN ITALIAN BY BLOOD, OF OF HIS PARENTS WERE ITALIAN LIVING IN ARGENTINA.

MAKE AFRICA JUST FORGET ABOUT POPE FOR NOW. NA EUROPEAN POLITICS THE HAPPEN THERE.

OVER 50% OF CARDINALS WHO WILL BE VOTING ARE FROM EUROPE..... HOW CAN ANYONE ELSE WIN?

No Religion is free from such attrocities.

Damn!

Ain't no fan of religion but where's Arinze? The one from Onitsha and currently 92?

Age not on his side.
Lost his chances to Pope Benedict back then.

Not a chance in the woods for an emergence of a Black or Asian pope.

MT:
I am a Christian but not a catholic. From this article, it is obvious that each pope governs by what he “
thinks” rather than what was written in the bible.

More so, I think Africans will always be subservient to the westerners. Look at all the activities involved in burying a pope and selecting a new pope, if any traditional religion engages in such in Nigeria, most people will call it “occultic” but it is okay now because it is the westerners.

What do you think will happen if it’s Africans that first travelled to other part of the world with their religions ? Don’t you think the westerners will be worshipping Ogun, Sango, Amadioha and other African gods ?. Religion propagation is looking like a case of who “arrived first”.

Look at China, they hold on to their Buddhism, a religion an African man will consider occultic , meanwhile China has the second largest economy. What happens to us here in Nigeria that imports crude oil and religion to other part of the world ? - we are still considered a third world nation.

I think it is the time to think and reflect deeply as Africans.

1..china is an atheist nation

2.. Buddhism came from India. The Buddha was an Indian man. Their main pilgrimage sites are in India.

3..China has ancestor worship, and indigenous philosophy like confucianism and tao. Also a large number of Chinese are Muslim and christian. But most of them are atheists. The Communist Party of China promotes state atheism
