Article: New Pope elected
- Thread starter rpm
- Start date
White smoke billowed from a Sistine Chapel chimney on Wednesday to show that a new pope has been elected to replace the frail Benedict XVI as leader of the world's 1.2 billon Catholics.
Tens of thousands of pilgrims in St Peter's Square cheered and the bells of St Peter's Basilica rang out after the 115 cardinals meeting in a Vatican conclave signalled their momentous decision.

I just have a question.
All these guys are from the same religion, so we can assume they all prayed to the same God, why did it then take 5 rounds to reach a conclusion? If all of them prayed, and God answered them all, shouldn't the vote have been unanimous 1st time round ?
