Seems like a demotion for me. You don't go from being part of god, but the son of god at the same time, down to god's representative on earth without feeling it at the end of the month. Mary Magdalene doesn't put out for nothing you know.

Yeah, but no nails through the wrists or feet this time, right? Plus fringe benefits, like: drinking from gold-based or gold-like things that are shiny(Jesus was a carpenter, so you only drank from wooden vessels, as we saw in Indiana Jones), large crowds that are always waaay below you, the Pope mobile, and no dying for real. You should go for this position, Jesus. You earned it, man. Or more like *super* man... <heart to victory sign fist pump> Only white smoke for the Immaculate One!

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's most senior Roman Catholic cleric, a cardinal expected to take part in the conclave to choose the next pope, rejected allegations on Sunday that he had behaved in an "inappropriate" way with other priests.

The Observer newspaper said Cardinal Keith O'Brien, 74, the archbishop of St. Andrews and Edinburgh, who is known for outspoken views on homosexuality, had been reported to the Vatican over allegations of inappropriate behaviour stretching back 30 years.

"Cardinal O'Brien contests these claims and is taking legal advice," a spokesman for the cardinal said.

Three priests and a former priest, from a Scottish diocese, have complained to the Vatican and demanded O'Brien's immediate resignation, the newspaper said, adding that they wanted the conclave to choose Pope Benedict's successor to be "clean".

The Observer gave little detail on the allegations but said one complainant had said O'Brien made an inappropriate approach after night prayers. Another priest complained of unwanted behaviour by O'Brien after a late-night drinking session.

Last week, O'Brien advocated allowing Catholic priests to marry as many found it difficult to cope with celibacy.

His comments last year labelling gay marriage a "grotesque subversion" landed him with a "Bigot of the Year" award from gay rights group Stonewall.

The Catholic Church's handling of the sexual abuse of children and others by priests has dogged the papacy of Benedict, who is due to step down on Thursday after becoming the first pope in centuries to choose to resign.

The next leader of the world's 1.2 billion Catholics will be chosen by 117 cardinals in the Vatican's Sistine Chapel.

Almost 10,000 people have signed a petition urging a U.S. cardinal not to take part in selecting the next pope, saying to do so would insult victims of sexual abuse by priests committed while he was Archbishop of Los Angeles from 1985 to 2011

Odds that the new Pope will be right-wing and backwards?

Place your bets now.

The balcony door opens...and out walks the new Pope. A Pope which will go against the grain and break all sort of boundaries in the Catholic Church...
