Freepers are trying to figure out who this new Pope is gonna be. Most of it is just speculation and discussions about why he picks a new name. But there is no shortage of crazy, crazy wheat along with the boring chaf:

Ann Archy always delivers:

AMEN!! I PRAY he doesn’t bring the Catholic Church towards the Jesuits.....ULTRA LIBERALS at least in the US.

SoldierDad is too sad to spell:

Yes. Very depressing. I’m praying for devine intervention, and an impeachment.

chessplayer knows Freepers have to love the Pope - he found some crazy liberals who hate him!

Well, as to be expected, libs are already tearing him apart.

1) They are outraged because he’s white.

2) They claim he supports the torture of women and children.

3) They claim he supports the rape of children by Catholic priests.

Venturer wants to see the long form!

His Father was Italian, can we assume his mother was also.

Doesn’t that make him an Italian Pope who was raised in Latin America?

skimbell goes a long, long way to make an Obaam joke:

I was sort of amazed that the new Pontiff didn't make a deferential nod to the U.S.'s Nobel Laureate. I was thinking it would have been sort of 'snappy' if Jorge had opted for just an initial as a name. How about

Pope O

in honor of "The One"?

winoneforthegipper has some stats that says this new Pope sucks.

Yeah this guy is not what we would be led to believe...

How in the hell can the Catholic Church elect a shepherd that only brings 20 percent of his flock to mass? When his fields are 92percent baptized in the faith?

On those numbers alone he is not a papa of evangelical means....
