A little known fact is the white smoke that comes out to signify a new Pope has been chosen is actually the old Pope being burnt. This was the first time a Pope has had to burnt alive.
True story. |

It is "reported" that he has said he would like the Falklands to "once again" be part of Argentina (they have NEVER been Argentinian)
What is true is that is no fan of the Argentinian leader Christina Kurchner or her late husband when he was leader. |

"Without me looking it up, whose going to tell me why he is called Francis 1
he chose the name Francis in honour of Saint Francis of Assisi"
Each pope takes the name of a saint.
Francis of Assisi was a Jesuit
Jesuits are a very humble non materialistic branch of the church
Pope Francis is also the first ever Jesuit pope |

Reminds me of this one.
Bloke goes to Rome to see the Pope, knocks on the door of the Vatican and says to the Swiss guard "I'm a good catholic and have come all the way from Britain to see the Pope" Swiss guard says "you can't just knock on the door, you need to have an audience, an appointment" Bloke says "oh come on I've come all the way from Britain" and bungs the guard a tenner.
Guard pulls the bloke through the door and says "listen, the Pope died this morning and the news isn't out so bugger off and don't say a word to anyone"
Bloke goes back to Britain and tells his mate "get into Ladbrookes and put your life savings on the Pope dying this week
A couple of days later the headlines are all about the death of the Pope, and the bloke is in the pub buying drinks all round, in walks his mate with a long face, what's up, have you not picked up your winnings yet? says the bloke. His mate says "I didn't win, I............
had a double with the Archbishop of Canterbury. 
Better told than written but hey ho. |

I am not at all religeous, I liken it to people like David Icke as per the other thread and give religeous leaders the same credibility! But I have been watching events and I have just one question....
Does burning piles of illegal child pornography create white or black smoke?
Just so we know....   |

He is a Status Quo fan... Saint Rick was his preference, but sounded chavvy |
