Like St. Thomas, I have my doubts...I doubt the new Pope will allow priests to marry, allow women to be ordained as priests, or fix the pedophilia scandal (letting the priests marry would go a LONG way toward achieving that!)...so let's name the new Pope after St. Thomas, the disciple who had his own doubts.

I like it.. They can call him the head "bud", the "bud-in-chief", the "bud-meister", the "bud-o-rosary". The possibilities are endless.

It could show that they will take science more seriously. Pope Sagan I would work too.

Pope Pagan I might be interesting or maybe Pope Buddha I

Or Pope Daddy. It would be cool if one actually was a practicing parent and knew what that meant.

Oh. Pope Francis.
