Black Smoke Over Sistine Chapel - No Pope Elected On First Day Of Conclave
On the first day of Conclave, we got no Pope decision as moments ago the Sistine Chapel chimney released black smoke. This is what happens when Goldman does not have a technocratic pope candidate who is, naturally, an immediate unelected shoo-in, guaranteeing the endless printing of diluted indulgences and Nominal Self-Flagellation Targeting.
As a reminder, Pope Benedict XVI was chosen on the second day of the last conclave in 2005, while John Paul II was selected on the third day of the 1978 conclave

They need to elect someone from Goldman.
What is the point of all this religious business?
religion causes war
They had a shoo-in but unfortunately Goldman Sachs investment banker Michael Pope resigned back in 2012.

Darn, didn't get my $0.99 Black Smoke app done in time.
Dude I worked with, not catholic, probably gay, said he wanted to be pope because he liked the fancy hat.
Great higgly-piggly.
The missus just told me she heard on the radio that Moochelle is videotaping the announcement of the winner.
I hope she wears a hot red dress.
I hope the green tent she wears is ok looking
Black smoke....just like when they burned Giordano Bruno in 1600 for his findings that there are other inhabited planets (with higher intelligence than that found on earth) in the universe.
The Vatican Bank - technically 'Institute for Works of Religion' - is housed in the old stone tower that used to be the papal prison, where people would wait to be put to death by the official Papal Executioner, who had a job until 1870. It is attached to one side of the pope's residence palace.
The Vatican Bank was founded in 1942 when Rome was under the control of Mussolini and his partners the Nazis, to take care of 'religious assets'.
---
The Pope was king-dictator of much of central Italy until 1870, and the last major Papal Inquisition was 1823-1846, described by ex-Jesuit Malachi Martin:
« ... Oppression, surveillance, a dictatorship ... almost 200,000 citizens of the papal states were severely punished (death, life imprisonment, exile, galleys) ...
There was a gallows permanently in the square of every town and city and village. Railways, meetings of more than three people, and all newspapers were forbidden. All books were censored. A special tribunal sat permanently in each place to try, condemn, and execute the accused. All trials were conducted in Latin. Ninety-nine percent of the accused did not understand the accusations against them. Every pope tore up the stream of petitions that came constantly asking for justice ... When revolts occurred ... they were put down with wholesale executions, sentences to lifelong hard labor in the state penitentiary, to exile, to torture. »

No pope till the ides of march on Friday. That's my bet. Peter the roman can start his papacy for the NWO on the day that Mars is celebrated and on the day the First JC was offed in 44BC
I wonder what colour smoke we would get if we set the whole sistine chapel on fire
I dont know what color it would be, but I know it would be beautiful.
We would all feel gay.

I got 100 Bernank bucks riding on the new Pope being a keynesian.
With 90+ locked in their; the who farted jokes must be running short
I figure they will drag it out until a few days before good friday to pump the ratings.
the new guy needs to be prepped and the world needs to have a few days or weeks to get familiar with the new guy.
good friday is one of the most important speaking engagements for their Chief and there are all kinds of things to organise
like a million trinkets with new Chief's face have to be produced and shipped on time! (probably from China)
Good friday is the retail version of the vatican for the masses. The real dates to watch are astronomical and astrotheological events.
I agree with Au...
.
'They' follow astrology,
numerology,
and sacred geommetry.
.
They are very symbolic and follow a different set of laws that the masses are not aware of...
I can see them waiting until/for a specific date...or star alignment...

Dear Mr. Durden,
Please, stop giving the Papacy attention. It only encourages child molesters and homophobes.
Sincerely,

Smoke during sex means you're doing something wrong.
Some dispensationalists (John Hagee is probably one of those) think that the Pope and other catholics won´t go to heaven when they die.
200 years ago, the Catholic Church could probably be labelled as the bad guys. But I don´t think that´s the case today.
It is probably true that the catholic church has added many things which you do not find in the original Christian Church. But to me it seems as if the basic theology of the Catholic Church is far closer to the teachings of Peter and Paul than dispensationalism. I don´t think that is a coincidence that dispensationalism began in the early 19th century in the UK and became so successful in the late 20th century in the US thanks to TV evangelists. My impression is that the success of dispensationalist theology primarily is the result of an economic power that emerged in early 19th century Britain and media ownership in the US in the 2nd half of the 20th century. Furthermore, Cyrus I Scofield, who created the Scofield Bible, seems to have been an adulturer and alcoholic who was bought by a lawyer who wished to transform the Christian religion into something else.
It also seems as if the Catholic Church has preserved more of the Christian stance on sexuality than for instance many Lutheran Churches. That is probably because of the celibacy. If Catholic priests are not allowed to have sex, or even think about sex if (especially if they are gay), they are probably less inclined than for instance Lutheran priests to allow contraceptives which enable people to have sex more frequently. I´m not sure that societies with a strong Catholic influence have benefited from making contraceptives illegal but the celibacy has probably limited infiltration in the Catholic Church to a substantial extent and therefore slowed down the speed of theological change which usually is the a consequence of a changing society in other respects. The Swedish Lutheran Church is radically different from what it was like 60 years ago. That is probably primarily due the fact that the government up to quite recently appointed the archbishop of the church and that infiltrators and similar people did not have to give up sex in order to become a priest.
To me, it seems as if the Catholic Church is the last principal political/religoius force in Europe and America which so far has not given up some traditional values on social issues. Take sperm donations, for instance. Ever since Pius XII in the 1950s declared that this is mechanized adultery the Catholic has not caved in on this issue. But other Christian churches don´t think that there is something wrong about the idea to let people jerk off for a few hundred dollars like some kind of male whores (even if they generally think that masturbation is wrong). Nor do most other Christian churches think that it is a problem if siblings who don´t know that they are siblings because of sperm donations marry and have children although that otherwise generally would be considered as incest.
The only big problem with the Catholic Church seems to be that so many gay men in the 20th century became Catholic priests in order to hide their sexual orientation or in order to be accepted by the society although their homosexuality could be spotted easily in some cases (many gay men of European and Middle Eastern descent can be identified by the feminine shape of their foreheads, for instance). Men who became Catholic priests for social reasons rather than very strong faith were probably far more likely to commit sex crimes than other priests. Therefore, it is probably important that the new Pope is a man who decided to become a priest because of strong faith rather than for social reasons.
I think that you probably get a better society if there are some people who take Catholicism seriously. In Sweden, the last authority who opposed the semi-euthanasia practices which were introduced unofficially in Swedish terminal health care during the 1990s, when they cut public health care spending, was the late Jesuit priest and professor in health care ethics, Erwin Bischofberger. I doubt that most of the general public really understands what is going in Swedish terminal health care nowadays. And I´m not so sure that people who understand what is happening really care. Not even people who call themselves Christians. It seems as if you sometimes need hard-core Catholics in order to prevent Christian ethics from disappearing completely from our society.
'many gay men of European and Middle Eastern descent can be identified by the feminine shape of their foreheads, for instance'
... thus proving proving conclusively that phrenology is not a pseudoscience.
machineh:
My comments:
I suppose that some men who don´t have that protruding skull bone above their eyes which women generally don´t have may find my comments above detrimental. However, not all gay men have a feminine shape of their forehead (especially bisexual men) and there seems to be straight men of European and Middle Eastern descent who don´t have that protruding skull bone above their eyes.
But I think that even you agree that there are very few women who have a forehead similar to, let´s say, Charles Darwin. There is a difference between male and female foreheads. Many homosexuals also have a very typical feminine forehead. Few European straight men have a forehead like the former Swedish minister Andreas Carlgren (who is openly gay), for instance (I suppose you can find a photo of him on Google).
bankguy,

they've had this gig for centuries and know what's happening because they control much of it.
My read as well. Scandal squelch failed. Too many leaks. Dirty laundry about to see daylight.
It's all smoke and mirrors anyway ...
I thought it was mostly hot air
I really like your avatar!
I think I know her from somewhere
I think that's a tranny.......but maybe you knew that
More importantly, how do you know that?
Excessively swollen taint?
You know, to be honest, I never expected to be posting that in a Pope thread.
Difficult...maybe if it's tucked up her cornhole but only a select few can do that, like, maybe Geitner.
Yep... Geitner is a perfect asshole!
Usually access to resources causes wars. Religion is often used as a front.
religion is used to get the poor gullible plebs to give a shit and fight for the "right" cause
once you dis religion, it's harder to get people excited to fight for anyone but themselves
"...its harder to get people excited to fight for anyone but themselves."
As it should be. What a wonderful world it would be if people only fought for themselves. We need more people fighting for themselves and less people fighting for causes.
Wow, it's hard to believe you'd get downvoted for advocating peace.
Haters gonna hate!
Yes....we need more self-centered people with no conscience and no compass.
Oops...saw a pretty girl...I need to go get my club.
Youre right. We need more people doing what they are told to do by people who know better how to run other people's lives. We need more people to join your favorite cause so you feel validated and important. Yes, we need to sacrifice our individuality for the greater good so people like you can feel better about themselves.
I think youre projecting here Dude. You think humans are incapable of living peacefully purusing their own interests because youre incapable of doing so. You need supervision so you naturally assume everyone else does. You probably do need supervision because you lack self control, but not everyone is that weak, feeble and needy.
Nope...I have seen what has happened to a country that is increasingly self absorbed and more focused on throwing out every virtue and teaching that has guided societies (were not just talking the Catholic Church here) for ages.
Everywhere I look I see moral decline and assholes defending it as righteous, justified, Politically correct,yada...yada..yada. Why because it serves their purpose of creating more self absorbed, short term gratified, sheep for them to sheer. And their favorite boogeyman happens to be the Church since it is easy schtick and serves their purpose of brainwashing the sheep that all that have to do is satisfy themselves and not worry about tomorrw. Like a bunch of monkeys, eat what you like, jerk off, throw your shit around...it is your right (Almost typed God given right, but that wouldn't fit your credo)
To sum it all up...how is it we live in a society that no one seems to care that we are in debt up to our eyeballs, dumping it on future generations, and corruption as far as the eye can see....because a bunch of assholes with no moral compass have taken charge of our financial and politcal system and convinced everyone else that it is their right. What say you?

Wonder what Ben Dover Bernanke's smells like?
close Eyedol. The quest for power causes war, and governments, kings, queens, ceasars, presidents have always been threatened when people value something (anything) more than they value "the state". Religion is usually a prime challenger in that arena. But religion comes in second behind those who love freedom. So first, a government must go to war against the freedoms of individuals. Once freedoms are conquered. Religion is next since it represent freedom of thought.
But when a religion also supresses freedom of thought, slaughters discenters, and coopts "government"..you now have a dual headed dragon of the most dangerous type.
"We're doing God's work"
Its the 21st century and we still have religions like Catholicism where men dress up in fancy dresses and hats, chant, participate in "ancient rituals" and pick a leader.
The whole event looks silly. One wonders if these pederasts really believe anything they teach or are they just in it for the butt sex? I think its the butt sex.
What a stupid religion (a redundant term, I know).
Yes we really believe. What do you believe? That life came from a rock? And you call us stupid?
JLee,
There isnt enough information/data to draw an accurate conclusion. If believing in god helps you thats fine. It seems that if god wanted his children to believe in him and understand him then there would be better information available for his children to use to make better decisions.
Since there is insufficient information I withhold drawing a conclusion. Life may have come from a rock, god, aliens, a flying spagetti monster, magic. Life may not actually exist in the way you think it does. Of course, it also might. There are many possibilities each as believable as the next.
if there is a god Im not too worried about it. It is illogical to think god would create man just to send him to hell for eternity for the decisions he made while alive. Decisions that were based on bad information. What kind of fucked up god is that? Not one I want to spend any time with. Besides, I live an honest life. I dont hurt anyone, I dont burden anyone, I take care of my kids so that you dont have to. Im a positive influence in the world. If god is going to condemn me for the way I live he can fuck himself right in his divine asshole.
+144,000
ZP.....Better to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt..
There isnt enough information/data to draw an accurate conclusion.
Not true. There is overwhelming proof for those that choose to look. Not looking is a choice as well. As a consequence, you should be aware of Revelation 3:16. Anyway, this is not the place. It's your choice, and your issue. But don't you ever come on a message board like this and disparage others beliefs.
But you must understand, JLee, how simply irresistable it is for those who are not insane (i.e, not fanatical believers in that for which there is no proof) to mock the superstitious and the willfully ignorant.
Organized religion is just spiritual Keynesianism.
And the Book of Revelation is a pretentious, ponderous piece of obscurantist boilerplate.
How this turgid crap got elevated to divinely-inspired canon just shows that humans are fallible.
After 1,600 years, shouldn't we admit that a terrible mistake was made?
Organized religion is just spiritual Keynesianism.
I understand your choice to worship rocks akak, it is yours to make. But I do not need to spend my day or feel any need to mock atheism, which is itself a belief and a religion, organized or not.
I do not worship rocks, nor anything else JLee, and your desperate attempt to force atheism into your irrational belief system only proves just how irrational religionists truly are.
You quickly forget who started this conversation. It wasn't me. And it wasn't necessary for you to reply to me and call all organized religion foolish. That deserved a response and leaves you without another choice akak. You are an atheist by default by your own statement. Every man stands for something...even if they are standing in quicksand.
What proof is there that your holy man, the "triune" god of father, son and holy spirit really exists? What proof is there that the god son really lived? It's alot more feasible that the story is based on Jewish folklore and fables and that's all there is to it. Great doctrine for the most part. The sinless man with the highest moral standards preaching pure love. It is a wonderful story but unfortunately it didn't happen that way you've been told. The reason why the vast amount of Jews stick to their own book and god figure is because they know Christianity is pure fantasy.
'the "triune" god'
And why does the devil's pitchfork have three prongs?
Mr. D obviously made that shit up.
It's a good story but that's all there is to it

A number of early popes were murdered, but I don't think any have been hanged.

Endless printing of diluted indulgences ! Timeless , Tyler !
Sounds like the currency of progress, holy shit paper money.
Indulgences were conditional on the purchaser's honest repentance for sin and this was in a world where people literally believed the Pope could and would influence their fate in the afterlife - though I'm still not sure why they had to pay for this privilege.
It's no more absurd than the current world reserve currency, backed by the full faith and credit of the US government - though I'm still not sure why we have to pay, via inflation and interest, for this privilege.
Bernanke for pope!
Print the Holy Roman Empire back to prosperity.
A major evolution in sociology occured with the separation of church and state. The next major evoliution will be the separation of bank and state. It required a revolution to formalize the first separation (USA, USA, USA) and it may take a second revolution for the second separation. I hope Peter Turkson, who considers market worship idoltry, wins. If the revolution turns violent having all the world's catholics on your side would be definite plus. Let's rock and roll. Even he prothelitizers are welcome to the party. Neither the church nor the markets should have access to public funding. Prosper and grow on your own merit and hard work or hit the road.
Not it! Not it! Not it! Not it! C'mon, one of you fruitcakes needs to volunteer to wear the funny hat!
Surely they know that if you wear the special hat you get 72 twelve year old male virgins.
I wanna ride in the fukin' Pope-mobile!

That's the score, what with the cardinal from Quebec saying "being Pope is the worst job you could possibly imagine."

Yo, it's time to wake up!

Looks like a fun place to work. +1
Not exactly what I was hoping for though.
Gridlock! It's obviously time for the Catholic Church to redistrict, levy a new tax, issue some debt, buy a fleet of unmanned drones, and come up with a catch phrase...something like...I don't know...Time for a Change?
It's what the people demand.
Peters pence is now "elizabeth's pence" care of ZH.
See that is "hope and change" the catholic church should get behind ;)
Catch phrases that worked are implicit fear mongering evoking evil.
Paint the devil on the wall and make them sign up against
all sin still works in many financial/insurance products.
On the political scene , left green totalitarian movements
get ahead by only promising punishment and get all the self flagellation votes.
It would appear that a conclave works like congress, but with smoke signals.
2 hours of sitting around, nothing accomplishes and now breaking for smokes and some scotch.
Wonder if electoral college was meant to run like the conclave>?
I'd say yes.
Hey, dont forget the butt sex. Lots and lots of angry butt sex going on.
Sounds like someone is anally fixated....Zap....you got an axe to grind or just jealous....
Dude,
I thought it was fairly common knowledge that the raping of little boys is rampant in the catholic church. Ive never been catholic, so Im not sure if that is just part of the religion. Perhaps you could enlighten me about why catholics like to fuck little boys in the ass.
Thank you.
Its fairly common knowledge that it happens everywhere.
It is also common knowledge that the Catholic Church was singled out as it was a private entity that the lawyers could extract money out of.
It is also less commonly known that when the polititians were overturning all of the statute of limitations rulings that they did it for private entities and not for the public school systems since it is rampant there too. The public schools like our government get legal exceptions or else they would have found themselves in more trouble than the Catholic Church.
Finally, as posted by others in this thread, it all traces back to the Catholic Church trying to embrace gay and confused men and allow them to join the priesthood. Some of the soft thinking that was rampant in the Church in the 60~70's. The results should have almost been expected. Sadly, the church, never faced with such a problem, did not have a history or mechanism to remove these pedophile priests. The bishops thought they could manage it by getting them counceling and shifting them around. Again, hindsight, and you have it just moving around with the priest.
Hopefully, the problem disappears as the Church today is much more focused on it and dealing with it head on. Gay men can go live in SF. The Catholic Church will still do the things it does helping others. And I am sure you will only continue to find fault in it.
As for enlightening you...I doubt that that will ever happen.
Perfectly stated.
.
Long live the rhythm method.
The same won't be said for the Occidental world when it is slowly overrun by the Oriental cultures....
I think they got the wrong dope
if it would be the proper one; then the smoke would be white
Simply let's give them some time they will find the right dealer with
gooood stuff :)
These are not the Popes you're looking for.
wrong dope?
I didn't think they picked the dope yet, its white smoke when they pick a new dope
I really do wish I gave a fuck.
My sentiments exactly
Enough with the bullshit coverage and propaganda about one of the biggest frauds known to mankind.
The Vatican, the Pope and the archbishops are pulling major political strings across the world and facilitate money laundering where and when necessary.
They're part of Mafia with a hankering for little boys.
Look at how these pederasts act. Its a fucking cult. Its a big giant butt fucking cult of butt fuckers.
Cheap sentiments you should rather keep to yourself.
The coverage and the church persons the MSM talks about
has nothing to do with the catholic faith.
Did not have you on my stupid commentators list yet.
But just like the MSM infected sheep, you resort to bringing
money laundering , Mafia and boy molesting into play
just to please the crowds.
1) Money laundering is a term lent from the war against financial privacy soon to include any money, whether it be PM`s or cash.
2) Mafia is local collusion defying big corrupt government
structures
3) boy molesters are a protected minority by liberals and leftists, all in the name of a higher moral ground of tolerance
And don`t (yet) take this personally but you seem to be
stuck in their propaganda world.
Bottom line, I'm right.
Digging deeper will enlighten you as well.
Expecting more smoke tomorrow ...
... and lots of mirrors all the time
Black smoke for a black Pope.
I think they burn a black cardinal everytime they vote and not get a majority.
When they get a majority they burn a virgin, that means someone from outside the conclave.
To become elected, you have to prove that you're capable of shitting in the woods... The process takes time...
Not so fast -- black smoke in the shape of a donkey indicates Jim Cramer's been selected.
Pray Pray Pray!!!
Prey Prey Prey!!!
Who cares who those pedophiles elect as their new grand puba.
Easy there now bigfella. The pedophiles...well there's an interesting history you're about to learn. The church, open to all, wanted priests in the 1960's and allowed numerous homosexuals to join. The result? Well you can see it can't you. Very bad stuff. The internal battle is over. The homosexuals lost. The purge has been ongoing for years. Couple cardinals resigned right before the conclave. There is a 300 page internal dossier being read out loud at Conclave naming and outing the others. All at the request of the outgoing pope. Look it up.
Not sure what's worse to be honest. Guys who give an oath to never have sexual relations with another human being or the guys who at least get it on with one another in the compounds. "Sound" sexual practice is an important part of mental health. Involving kids is sick whether in Rome or in Bangkok.
But I wouldn't get stuck up about the sexual preference or rather alleged lack thereof. The whole thing is built on sand and can only survive through massive amounts of propaganda and fear mongering. Just because you don't see any alignments between the ruling elite and the church, doesn't mean the church doesn't have their greasy fingers in every honey pot and is working on every political level in every country on the planet except perhaps North Korea... but that will change as well.
Yes...things built on sand usually collapse after a few thousand years and when they have fewer than a billion follows.
But keep believing...you must be right, you must be right.
Pyramids were built on sand and still standing. Egypt lasted a few thousand years longer. People want to believe even when it's so far fetched that for example the god son was birthed by a virgin or that he woke up from his death and walked among the people again.
Folklore, fables, fairy tales, hear say, rumors, make belief, wishful thinking and so on. If it wasn't for the Roman Empire adopting Christianity literally on its death bed, the saga would have ended long ago.
What fairy tales do you believe in?
The one about us making it out of this mess and living happily ever after? Secularism finding you every happiness as its followers tear each other apart? Liberarians convincing everone else to think like themselves and the world not self destructing?
There are a mountain of fairy tales and my guess is you have accepted many of them. Hook, line and sinker.....
Ponzi pope, pope of hope, whatever. Thrown in for some hopium and some tax-free white smoke as a sign things are improving. Maybe even a Nobel Prize pope for integration.
Would you like to see the pope at the end of rope? Do you think he's a fool?
I'll bet there are a lot of pope on a rope in the vatican shower room
Doesn't the new Pope get a free pass to one of Berlusconi's "Bunga Bunga" parties?
why would he go? There are no young boys at the bunga bunga parties
Oh, that's right.
Black smoke, dead pigs....end of dayz!!!
"Black smoke, dead pigs, S&P down, end of dayz!!!"
Fixed it
Just elect Peter the Black Pope from Ghana(?) and get it over with.
A black Pope? OMG. next they'll be electing a woman pope.
What do you think this is? The futuristic 14th century?
Goddess is not amused.
fucking Catholic creeps junking amok everywhere
Opus Dei, bitchez.*
*According to Dan Brown
Just fucking nuke the place. Black smoke is from the SF Recon team, laser designating the target.
What's the ETA on that GBU?
i wonder if the jesuit run curia provides these voting bishops and cardinals with young boys in luciferian rituals between conclaves to make them more sensitive to the nwo and making sure that the new pope is supportive of hofjuden managing the vatican's gold
Excellent question. I belive the answer is "yes"
What is it with these secret societies and cults and their predisposition to sodomize little boys? Why boys?
There certainly is something unnatural about these freaks.
Zap....do tell...which is your cult? and agenda?
Black smoke = No sacrifical baby barbecue to celebrate the new Pope
White smoke = The baby is almost ready, be sure to remove the roasted apple from its mouth before serving to the Cardinals
Still playing musical chairs to Ava Maria.
After Obama's reign crushes the US, looks like the Vatican is the last best hope for humanity. Just sayin....
I put more faith in Kim Jong Un than any pope. Neither is any closer to whatever form of deity there may be looking, laughing and ruling over us OR NOT. Who knows either way for sure? Nobody ALIVE that's for bloody sure. In the meantime, it's all good business, vanity, power and fear mongering. Whatever.
Maybe they should appoint you.....
Pass. I can't fake it well enough. My convictions won't let me.
But...But...the way you preach...you are the only one that is perfect enough...or dare I say....infallible.
The last president is black.
The last (next) pope is black.
Let's just wait and see what color Kate's baby is!
I would give both of my nuts if they elect a black pope! First a black president and then a black pope. It would be one big dip-shit, racist mass suicide and the world would be a better place.
Too bad black smoke contaminates. Otherwise I'd be happy to have that black smoke forever. No Pope and the Cardinals locked up: Perfect.
