"A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold" (Prov. 22.1)"
Vatican has been trying, since yesterday, to find a pope. Two elections have been held, but no name yet.
More elections to come today, until a pope comes up, with a "white smoke".
What has the world to do about it? Many things:
1. There are over 1.4 billions of christians in the planet;
2. Over 800 millions are catholics;
3. Vatican is, at the same time, a church and a State (country);
Vatican (and christianism) has an extremely big influence over all, I said all religions.
We should realize that any country wishes to have good relationship with the Vatican - and the pope, mainly.
Let's all watch and rejoice on this big party: choosing of a pope, a tradition which remains over two thousand years, and more to come!
Habemus Christos!
