Weird
It's papal conclave time again. I'm hoping the cardinals don't elect Peter the Roman, because Saint Malachy's Propecy of the Popes suggests we might have a cataclysm if they do. Then again, we might have one anyway, the way the world is heading.
Pope Francis didn't appear in the prophecy, which is at its final stage now. I think Saint Malachy must have skipped over him, on the grounds that when he was made Pope his predecessor, Benedict XVI, was still alive. This is just the sort of behaviour that a twelfth-century Irish archbishop might have regarded as being not the done thing.
We'll probably get a Pope Francis II.
