he seems lovely, and he's also more pro-lgbt (which is good news) one of the reasons Francis made him a cardinal

Yes, I'm happy today with the choice of this next Pope.
Good luck to him in his Papacy.

Hard to take anything you post seriously Alf.... were you not on here a few weeks back stating the Pope died last year or something

I never take anything you say seriously. You talk out of your arse

At least I post my own thoughts, not something someone has doctored from
the internet. Have a great day to you too :douf:

Just a pity your own thoughts are bollox, isn't it?

You seem desperate for an argument :hee: Not today Alf not today

I read somewhere not sure if its true that his Grandmother was Irish and emigrated from Cullen in County Cork.....Neem we have connections!!

Ah I wasn't too far from Cullen today on my drive to Kerry

Yes Maru
When the new Pope was born in Chicago
It was full of gangsters

ah damn apparently it was a different Cardinal who was in the running...we can stand down :laugh:

If he's from America he probably has some Irish in hm somewhere [emoji23]

Pietro Parolin, yes


he was the favourite, but i think he didn't want the job in the end?

Apparently some cardinals were put off by his lacklustre homily at the Pope's funeral

Or had.

…I think that his heritage is very much from Peru as well so he may have some Irish ancestry threads…?…but I think mostly he’s more Paddington Bear than Irish…

he's a tennis fan, fan of Carlos Alcaraz


as well as a football supporter of AS Roma



:clap1: :clap1: :clap1:


finally not a boring pope for once, i hope the current AS Roma squad will be invited soon then


i'm curious if he's currently following the ATP and WTA tournament of Rome then, currently ongoing in his free time :think:

Plus why AS Roma ??

Liking Carlos Alcaraz is understandable as just about everyone who follows tennis likes him

…and Pope Leo is also a White Sox fan and was at the 2005 World Series…a huge Sport fan…?…
