This whole Pope thing is weird b/c I read Angels and Demons like two days
ago, an older book by Dan Brown. If you haven't read it; it is about the Pope dying and the Cardinals electing a new Pope and the whole mystery behid it. I won't give anything away but it was a pretty decent book.

Beware of the Illuminati.

1. Great Book.
Does this mean we need to watch out for anti-matter now?

5. You know what's weird?
I never read that book, but I just finished reading David Eddings' Elenium trilogy for like the 20th time the other day. It's sword-and-sorcery fantasy set in your typical medieval European-esque setting complete with pseudo Catholic church, and a big plot point is how the Archprelate (read: the Pope) is dying and all the Patriarchs (read: Cardinals) are falling all over themselves with the politicking to gain the throne. There's some pretty hilarious satire in it. :P
