What is all the fuss about the election of a pope? Does it matter if a black cardinal is elected instead of a white? What makes us think that God is involved in the quest for a new pope? What does the bible say about the papal power?
"And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time" (Daniel 7:25).
"And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard (Rome), and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon (the devil) gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority" (Revelation 13:2).
The long history of the pomp and pride of pagan Rome and papal Rome can only be compared to the Jewish religious services before the Babylonian captivity.
"Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, are these." (Jeremiah 7:4).
"Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men" (Mark 7:7).
It must be remembered that God does not judge by outward appearances, nor does he choose men because of their capabilities.
"...but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word" (Isaiah 66:2).

Go to heaven and you still gonna find a white racist telling black Jesus he's not qualified.
So Africans are only experienced to be part of shrinking church formed upon lies and based on African ancient Isis religion of sun worshipping?
Nothing is new here. A holy mother and child ( Mary/Jesus) concept was depicted in rock carvings in ancient Egypt some 3000 years before Constatine convened the Council of Nicea which oversaw the transformation of pagan Mithraism of the Roman empire and the overpowering African Isis religion to lure the devotees of Isis.
The cult of Isis, an Egyptian mother-goddess religion was absorbed into this new "christianity" by replacing Isis and her son Horus with Mary and Jesus. And from there everything black of the ancient world was turned white to begin the European reality. The formation of Europe is based on this new fake church and Africans have no business being part of it unless they want to be second class supporters.

The catholic church in China is also independent, so why the African can't do the same.

I am so shocked about the comment made by the Rev. Ratzinger. The reason being that I have always felt Catholic clergies are well educated and are abreast with time. It turns out for me that they are no better than our roadside pastors in Ghana proclaiming to be "men of God".
The good thing about his comment is that he (Rev. Ratzinger) has confirmed what we have come to know as highly political rather than divine, when it comes to the selection of a Pope. If this is right, then Rev. Ratzinger should know Africa is not a new continent, neither has it ever been dark and will never be considering its position on earth. The Rev. needs to go back to the basics of History and Geography for upgrade.
I am sure Catholics know better not to exclude eligible candidates based on their ethnicity or global location. Africans are peaceful and at this point in time the world need peace for a change.

Hi,
I'm from Germany and like to see comments like that. Thank you! At least a few people knowing what's going on. :)
I'm ashamed of Ratzinger, maybe the whole catholic church and the whole system (of robbing, manipulating etc...).
Many people here don't belong and go to the church here anymore (in western Europe). Only 10 % of German population are Members of the catholic church (in 1990 25% were).
There are many reasons:
- doesn't match the modern and free culture here
- very backwards
- many racist and anti-Semitic comments from popes (from e.g. "Pius-Brüder" Pius Brothers and other Church members)
- hate speeches
- child molesting priests (seems to repeat at least 3 times a year)
- suppression of free speech (many lawsuits against media here in Germany!)
- EVEN things like: Choosing patients for their catholic hospitals (a young woman raped a few weeks ago wasn't allowed to be a patient!!!)
- A muslim friend of mine isn't allowed to execute his job, because the German "Diakonie" (a Company by the catholic church in Germany, maybe one of the biggest!) wants him to convert to Christianity before...
"Majority of Ghanaians spend the whole day praying instead of using their time and resources to work hard or think well and be inventive."
My best friend (with roots in Ghana) says exactly the same thing. You are absolutely right.

If their population is falling and yours is swelling, and he continues to rule you, the wisest thing to do is to take the church in Africa as yours, end of story heh.

I don't understand why Africans cry racism when whites say they don't want us in their institutions.
The catholic church is Europe and Europe is the catholic church.

AFTER BEING A CARDINAL FOR YEARS,WHAT ELSE? THIS IS THE HIGEST DEGREE OF RACISM IN THE CHURCH.
Ratsinger or whatever he calls himself is not working for God if that is what he thinks. Old age and skin color does not tell ones experience. I hope this is not an opinion borne out of racism.
REV I DONT AGREE WITH YOU,IF KOFI ANNAN WHO IS AN AFRICAN WAS ABLE TO MANAGE THE UN FOR 8YRS WHY CANT AN AFRICAN BE CHOSEN AS A POPE?IN THE PRENSENCE OF GOD BOTH BLACK AND WHITE ARE EQUAL BEFORE HIM.
ARE YOU SURPRISED ???
THEY ARE GERMANS AND DID NOT WANT TO SEE A BLACK MAN EXIST AT ALL LET ALONE BE IN A LEADING POSITION:
Don't you think you're bit ignorant calling all Germans racist?
There are racist people everywhere - in Ghana, too.
(Although I never experienced any racism on my trip to Ghana last year. Such a nice country and people! ...

The whole catholic reality is that of Europe. You can not separate the two. 'am sorry Africans are big enough to have their own catholic church and their own pope as England and China did.

When the catholic church is collecting tax free money (collection and Kofi Na Ama) from poor africans they dont look at expirience.. Yes Expirience.
Core value of churches: look for dummies and ride them to fame.
Typical "German racism". How does a person get experience if he /she is not allowed to lead?.This man has already set the tone for favouritism.
This clown's brother did not have an experience before he became a pope.
What the heck is he talking about?
THIS IS AN INSULT TO MANY AFRICAN CATHOLICS AND IT SERVES THEM RIGHT!! WHAT EXPERIENCE DOES ANY OF THE WHITES POPE HAVE? TIME FOR AFRICAN CATHOLIC CHURCH ON ITS OWN. EGLAND DID IT SOME 500 YEARS AGO. THE WHITES ARE STILL R ...

I am so shocked about the comment made by the Rev. Ratzinger. The reason being that I have always felt Catholic clergies are well educated and are abreast with time. It turns out for me that they are no better than our roadsi ...

like what many friends have ben writing, experience is always picked from the job or thant that you are to bring someone from outside. We know them and this is why African have to wake up.
I forgive him. He speaks as a brother from circular world. They talk in-experience and Jehovah directs according to his ways. so you don't actually need experience......... because Jehovah will direct you. Does he Jonah, Mose ...

YOU JUST NAILED IT. YOU SAID IT ALL.
GHANAIANS THINK PRAYING IS THE SOLUTIION TO THEIR PROBLEMS.
Where then is the HOLY SPIRIT? THESE MEN SHOULD MEND THIER WAYS!
This is always how Africans are perceived when it comes to international dealings,and my question is why don't we go back to our ancestors religion instead of forcing ourselves to belong to where we are not recognised,AND SIN ...

If God wants a black pope it will happen and brother of retiring pope comment is not valid.
The comment made by Cadinal Turkson of Ghana's brother. Shows how people who call themselves men of God which are not can be proved. That its not yet time for an African to be come a Pope. lf its true that it's God that in ...
