Poll question: What should the Convention of Cardinals be called?
To dispel complaints that the church is getting a little stodgy, and to move the church boldly into the 17th century, they should update the name.

1. Vatican Idol
I would have chosen "PickaPope 2005" but I'm really peeved by capital letters in the middle of words.

3. According to my encyclopedia of animal grouping....
...one refers to a group of cardinals as:

"An Implausibility of Cardinals"

or

"A Covey of Cardinals"

10. Our university Chaplains were a tad forgetful
so we referred to a confusion of clergy.

I'm glad to see that the Sacred College get their own collective noun - even if they don't wear the cool hat any more.
