    Let's just hope that they took into account diversity, inclusivity, and above all, equity.

    I was only joking

        You doubt god's power to create someone or something to talk to, or even to banish loneliness itself?

        I would have to go on a multiple month hike through the woods in order to answer that question. Once I faced down death, left with only my wits and my strength to survive, I will have your answer. If I make it back. Anyway, if I take an extended leave from here, that's where I'll be. Forward my mail to the woods.

          They picked a guy from the South Side of Chicago... what more do you want?

            What’s so special about the south side of Chicago?

                  My better half tells me he has Peruvian citizenship so they’re claiming him too.

                  Probably helped him get some votes.

                  Only non-witches get due process.

                    I wonder if this was an anti-Trump push by the Holy Spirit, perhaps not at all, but a “young” (69 years old, should get a good 20 years in as Pope) servant of God from America might have been a subconscious preference by the cardinals voting.

                    Speaking of Cardinals, man it sucks he’s a Cubs fan. He really could’ve been slick by being a St Louis or San Diego baseball fan!

                            I’m more concerned about what MTG thinks imagines she knows about the Holy Spirit.

                            Not sure if she’s weighed in on Leo XIV yet. Am certain she will.
