Is that white smoke coming out of the NC GOP's chimney?

We may be on the verge of a dual Papacy:

Claude E. Pope Jr., a Brunswick County businessman and former Wake County Party chairman, announced his candidacy for state GOP Party chairman on Wednesday. Claude Pope is a distant cousin of Art Pope. He is also the son of Claude Pope Sr. who served as Commerce Secretary under Republican Gov. Jim Martin. A stretch of U.S. 1 in Wake County is named for Claude Pope Sr.

An interesting historical note: Avignon was spanked by the Plague twice during the Pope/Anti-Pope years, taking thousands of the slightly confused devout in the process. Was it God, or merely an unfortunately large collection of people with poor hygiene? Either way, the Tea Party needs to pay attention to this.

New Pope Announced:

On the actual new Pope:

From Wikipedia on the new Pope talking about a marriage equality bill:

We are not talking about a mere bill, but rather a machination of the Father of Lies that seeks to confuse and deceive the children of God." He has also insisted that adoption by gays and lesbians is a form of discrimination against children. This position received a rebuke from Argentine president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, who said the church's tone was reminiscent of "medieval times and the Inquisition".

It seems the Catholic Church

is doubling down on misogyny. So sad to have such men pretending to know the mind of the gods.

And I thought it was bad being raised a southern Baptist.
