The Conclave begins
05/06/2025
For Catholic media, the imminent conclave is a combination of the Super Bowl and an old-school political nominating convention. Everyone has a favorite team, preferred outcomes and wants to find some way to keep score.
I'm going to turn this over the Holy Spirit because that's who ultimately gets to call the shots. A lot of the coverage seems to be talking for the sake of talking.
That said, I do hope that we get a pope who will calm things down, lift the restrictions on the Traditional Latin Mass and perhaps heal the ancient schisms with Copts and Orthodox.
Is that too much to ask?
