Leaning towards Cardinal Pietro Parolin - Cardinal secretary of state.
Fuck off with that Danny devito crap. No one but Americans like that dude, and you've seen how utterly brain-dead America is.
Damn I've never seen a Danny Devito hater. Welp I hope one day you are able to experience the joy of his Holiness Danny Devito the Pope.
Love it that you dumb down other people's arguments to your level, and simplistically call anyone's stance "lover/hater" because your brain can't fucking comprehend anything beyond black and white.
Sure proved you're American though.
My apologies for reducing your opinion to "hater". May I inquire into the reason you have such strong feelings for Mr Devito? It appears it may be related to his being American. Would it effect your opinion of him if I told you he isn't actually American? He was born in New Jersey, which to many isn't really part of America, more of an unwanted growth of New York.
I know I have offended you and for that I apologize. However, I will not leave your person attacks unanswered. I will have you know my ocular spheres transmit to my brain a far larger number of colors. I would safetly estimate I can comprehend as near as 3 colors! Maybe more!
I'm thinkin' Father Guido Sarducci will come outta nowhere and sprint to the win.
I thought the crowd favorite would've been Luigi, though I have no idea what the requirements are for being elected Pope.
Be male Be a roman catholic Get enough cardinals to vote for you
So you're saying Luigi has a chance?
I'd vote for him
Dang I might have to change my vote
I think we should reelect Francis.
No no no. You aren't allowed to elect dead popes, just prosecute them.
We just gotta set up one of those WH40K Golden thrones for him!
Guarantee they have something that's already halfway there tucked in a warehouse.

Satan. I'm pretty sure he would greatly increase the morality and the accountability in the Catholic Church.
If nothing else he would send all the pedo preists to hell.
Accountability.
Vermin Supreme.

Yeah Danny sounds good. Or Jack Black would pope the hell out of that Vatican, literally.
The Archbishop of Kabul
I see what you did there.
I'm votin' fer yours truly. I'd make a kick-ass pope. 😤
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and vote for you.
The pope goes by AD&D druid rules. The new pope is the guy who killed the previous pope.
So it's J D Vance.
Last one was on the liberal side. Expect a hardcore, gay hating conservative this time.
I had read that Francis appointed 80% of the Cardinals who pick the new Pope. So it's possible that the new Pope will have similar views to Francis.

The pope elections always last long cause every man always votes for himself. Just like the pirate king of brethren court
Adam Savage
Trump! Make Trump the new Pope. That would be hilarious!
Do you think that is why JD Nonce was in the Vatican? To force the Pope into announcing Trump as his successor?
I heard he was there to kill him. Hence his death shortly after.
All the pope had to do to live was say thank you, but he didn't.

Cue Musk with his lottery for votes.
I'd vote for Elon Musk as Popeking of Catholicism.
The same way Elon "improved" Twitter and the US Government, I would love it if he did the same for the Catholics.
Robert Smith of the Cure.
that'd be badass.
+1
Well he did defeat Mecha Streisand.
Screw it, I'll be the pope if that means I can release the records on their pedo priest protection program.
"You're the pope?? I didn't vote for you..."
- Benjamin Franklin, probably. Or whoever it was that said "Not everything quoted on the internet is real"
Honestly I don't care (well, beyond making this ~~pope~~ post), as I am not catholic. I am technically a protestant by heritage, but the truth is that I find even the term "agnostic" to be too religiously loaded to the point where I usually refer to myself as areligious instead.
As for the pope. Well, he's... there.. well, not right now. But he will be soon-ish. I'll just accept whoevers named announced while venting smoke from the cardinal thunderdome as being the new pope. And then he'll be there again.
Beyond that, he doesn't affect my life in any way. Nor do I affect his life in any way. Unless he accepts my challenge to an offroad and uphill car race. Yes, he's gonna have to drive the popemobile himself for this. I'll be driving my new AWD Lolvo. I'm sure it'll be fun for anyone involved, no matter who wins.
But having said all of that: I think Robbie Coltrane would do well as a pope.
I am nominating myself, being as I am a Discordian Pope.
Bill Burr would be pretty funny I think
