Rhetorical question, obviously.

[karezza]

Corin "What the Hell is the Pope.?"

I have no idea Corin.

[Victoriana]

She was dead right about John James though.

[Crimson Dynamo]

I like Crete

[MTVN]

Her stupidity in this conversation cracked me up

"Is he still alive? He's a little man with grey hair isnt he?"

"I dont even know what a Pope is"

"Oh my God you're related to the Pope!"

[Livia]

I thought it was funny. She's so daft! But not the daftest person I've ever met. In fact, she's not the daftest person I've met this week.

When she gets riled up, shes on the defensive and on the attack, not discussing anything intellectual... I don't think she's dumbing down at all.

Yes - just playing the dim card - and she got the air time she wanted

[CaudleHalbard]

I don't think there's a straightforward answer. Corin is probably pretty dim but she may well be hyping up the dimness as she knows, in BB terms, dimness is a winner!

[Astaril]

She is definitely faking the dumbness, Anyone from Manchester will know the basic things about the Catholic religion, its a very Catholic county, most schools are Catholic based. I would understand she might not know his name, fair enough but she would know that there is only one pope.

My family in Manchester can't stand her! She doesn't seem to have many fans from what I hear. People from Manchester are quite proud and certainly not dumb and foolish as a rule. She has NOT done Manchester proud

Well, there is now, but twas not always thus :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antipope

An antipope is a person who, in opposition to a sitting Bishop of Rome, makes a widely accepted claim to be the Pope.

The Great Western Schism—which began in 1378, when the French cardinals, claiming that the election of Pope Urban VI was invalid, elected Clement VII as Pope—led to two, and eventually three, rival lines of claimants to papacy: the Roman line, the Avignon line (Clement VII took up residence in Avignon, France), and the Pisan line. The last-mentioned line was named after the town of Pisa, Italy, where the council that elected Alexander V as a third claimant was held. To end the schism, in May 1415, the Council of Constance deposed John XXIII of the Pisan line, whose claim to legitimacy was based on a council's choice. Pope Gregory XII of the Roman line resigned in July 1415. In 1417, the Council also formally deposed Benedict XIII of the Avignon line, but he refused to resign. Afterwards, Pope Martin V was elected and was accepted everywhere except in the small and rapidly diminishing area that remained faithful to Benedict XIII. The scandal of the Great Schism created anti-papal sentiment, and fed into the Protestant Reformation at the turn of the 16th century.

There are over 40 recognised antipopes .....


There are still some other popes :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope#Other_popes

In the Roman Catholic Church

The "Black Pope" is a name that was popularly, but unofficially, given to the Superior General of the Society of Jesus due to the Jesuits' importance within the Church. This name, based on the black colour of his cassock, was used to suggest a parallel between him and the "White Pope" (since the time of Pope Pius V the Popes dress in white) and the Cardinal Prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples (formerly called the Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith), whose red cardinal's cassock gave him the name of the "Red Pope" in view of the authority over all territories that were not considered in some way Catholic. In the present time this cardinal has power over mission territories for Catholicism, essentially the Churches of Africa and Asia, but in the past his competence extended also to all lands where Protestants or Eastern Christianity was dominant. Some remnants of this situation remain, with the result that, for instance, New Zealand is still in the care of this Congregation.

I don't see why it matters one way or another? I don't think she is feigning like Belo did.
I think she's a decent person, (and No, I'm not a massive Corin fan) which to me, is far more relevant than her level of education.
The fact that she didn't strangle Sam over the past few days makes her a better person than me lol!

[Angus]

If she really doesn't know who the Pope is she is truly and irredeemably stupid and I cannot imagine how someone can get to the age of 29 and never, ever have heard of the Pope. If, on the other hand, she thinks it makes her seem dipsy and cutesy to pretend never to have heard of the Pope, that just makes her a big fat faker.

Whichever of the two she is, it doesn't alter the fact that she is THE most boring, uninteresting and pointless HM ever. I have yet to hear her express any meaningful opinions, or get involved in any house politics, or do or say anything remotely entertaining. She reminds me of Charlie last year - relentlessly "cheerful" with a backbone of pure self interest and desperation - a person of whom one would say "the lights are on, but no-one's at home".

Corin and her fans should get down on their knees this week and thank Sam for giving her some airtime when she needs it most, instead of whinging, complaining and bigging up a prank to the level of some sort of heinous crime.
