Religitards, WE RIDE! POPE elevates 6 cardinals to announce his SUCCESSOR - PETRAS ROMANOS IS HERE!!!

Dumbass post.

1) the so-called prophecies are fake. They are not real. They are not from the saint, but made centuries later, as a political commentary of the time, not prediction of the future.

2) The Pope is always elevating new cardinals every year.

I'm sure he is getting ready. It is said that he will retire in April.

I do not think he can name a successor. It has to be done by vote.

Another moron.

You are saying it is being said he will retire in April. Where did you get that bullshit from? Oh, I know, people who said it LAST FUCKING YEAR about APRIL this year. And guess what, WRONG like usual. Fucking moron.

why are you so afraid?

JESUS IS COMING! JESUS IS HERE! JESUS IS GONE!
Guess these guys missed it.

Because they will MOURN his return, as prophesied!

OK if it was last year shame on me. I did get the story from here but, didn't pay that much attention. Other than that take your hate and go else where.

:russell3:

My hate? I don't like people spreading ignorant bullshit which leads to the harm of many.

St. Malachy never put a DATE on his prophecy. The basis of 2012 being the LAST POPE was on the average 11 year reign of the popes since the prophecy was discovered.

If you go by the 11 year span average, then ANY TIME in 2012, beginning of 2013 WOULD be accurate.

Pope's don't retire, they are pope's for life.

Their position expires at death only.

The Black Pope

Amazing timing

The so-called prophecies are FAKES. How many times do you have to be told this? there is nothing to them:

Spanish writer father Benito Jerónimo Feijóo wrote in his Teatro Crítico Universal (1724–1739), in an entry called Purported prophecies, that the ones by Saint Malachy's were a shameful forgery, claiming that they were created ad hoc during the 16th century. As a proof, he offers an accurate fact: that the first time the prophecy is mentioned is on a handwritten account by patriarch Alfonso Chacón (a.k.a Alphonsus Ciacconus, 1540–1599) in 1590 (this account would be later published, in 1595, by the abovementioned historian Arnold de Wyon); in this account, Chacón only comments the prophecies until the papacy of Urban VII (whose papacy only lasted September 1590, and was the current pope at the time Chacón wrote the comment). According to Feijóo, Chacón, who held a great intellectual prestige at the time, was lured to comment the prophecies by someone who wanted to help cardinal Girolamo Simoncelli (1522–1605) reach the papacy. By showing them to be accurate till Urban VII, it was expected people to believe the next ones; that way, Girolamo Simoncelli could be easily elected pope, since the prophecy after Urban VII's one tells about a pope Ex antiquitate urbis (from the antiquity of the city), a fact that seems to fit him, who was cardinal of Orvieto (literally "old city", urbs vetus), or at least better than Gregory XIV, who was elected pope after Urban VII. Thus, the forgery would have been useless, since Simoncelli was not elected pope. Jesuit father Claude-François Menestrier also claimed that the prophecies were forged in order to help the papal candidacy of Girolamo Simoncelli, offering similar reasons to those of Feijóo. Spanish historian José Luis Calvo points out that the prophecies seem to be very accurate till Urban VII, fitting perfectly even the antipopes, but that afterwards great efforts have to be made in order to make the prophecies fit their pope. Feijóo's explanation is usually regarded as being the most probable proof of the forgery.

They can retire.

No they don't. Oh there is this one book on amazon about a medieval pope who once did, and 173 successive ones since.

They can retire in function, ie quit traveling, working.

But they retire at death.

Then the cardinals vote.

I've got a feeling that the pope is going to die this year...

They CAN retire, which is not to say they will. But they CAN.

§2. If it happens that the Roman Pontiff resigns his office, it is required for validity that the resignation is made freely and properly manifested but not that it is accepted by anyone.

Blah. Whatever you say Jesuit.

Just like the VATICAN covered up the remains of St. Peter ACTUALLY being found near Jerusalem, NOT in ROME, right?

The entire BASIS that the POPE is the apostle Peter's successor is LUDICROUS and based on fabrication, just like everything they preach.

Like how they use a SATANIC upside down cross and claim that is how Peter was crucified even though there is NO historical evidence to that fact?

Give me a break Jesuit. Stop spreading your lies.

Don't link something that has never been done and is not a part of the Pope's responsibility. Retiring is not the same thing as not being Pope, its something else. It means others take over work.

And if that one book is correct, that one probably died not too long after.

And any that say they would quit are probably poisoned.

Bush finished his job and escapes to a very inappropriate huge ranch in South America.

Pope's don't get that luxury.


When they want a new pope, they assassinate the old.

Because of this, have more sympathy for pope's than presidents and hope one of them speaks up.

Again, Pope's don't quit, its a life long position.

The Second Council of Lyons was convened on 7 May 1274, to regulate the election of the pope. This Council decreed that the cardinal electors must meet within ten days of the pope's death, and that they must remain in seclusion until a pope has been elected; this was prompted by the three-year Sede Vacante following the death of Pope Clement IV in 1268. By the mid-16th century, the electoral process had evolved into its present form, allowing for variation in the time between the death of the pope and the meeting of the cardinal electors.

Traditionally, the vote was conducted by acclamation, by selection (by committee), or by plenary vote. Acclamation was the simplest procedure, consisting entirely of a voice vote, and was last used in 1621. Pope John Paul II abolished vote by acclamation and by selection by committee, and henceforth election will be by full vote by ballot of the Sacred College of Cardinals.


The Code of Canon Law 332 §2 states, "If it happens that the Roman Pontiff resigns his office, it is required for validity that the resignation is made freely and properly manifested but not that it is accepted by anyone."



If one should claim resignation, he may retire from his job, but no one accepts the resignation. He only is gone at death.

was supposed to be april of 2011

I adore their cute costumes.

Funny.. the people use the name of a Catholic saint they say must be true, talking about a position which thus must be of value to God to have it a thing of prophecy, all mocking the faith in one. This is the absurdity you find here.

You have been proven wrong. And you double down on moronity.

By the way this isn't just wiki. As a former Catholic, it is what all Catholics are taught in sunday school/catechism.

I am NOT WRONG.

This thread is in complete error.

There is NO POPE that has done this, save for one in the medieval days if that book is true and cannon law may allow a pope to quit doing work, but they don't replace him until he dies.

This is based on nonsense by a non Catholic who doesnt know much about Catholicism.
