This contest is fueled by the following news:
The Cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church from six continents gathered on Monday for their first Conclave of the 21st century. The have come together to elect a new Pope who will take the thrown occupied by John Paul II for a generation. The new Pontiff will preside over the world's 1.1 billion Roman Catholics. The Cardinals hail from 52 countries. The Cardinals gathered for a mid-morning Mass at St. Peter's Basilica and then headed to the Sistine Chapel where they will remain sequestered until a new Pope is elected. Once in the Chapel, the Cardinals will take a vow of secrecy and hear a meditation from a senior Cardinal. They may begin voting the same day.
After many hours of carful deliberation everyone agreed that Mr. Gibson had done more to further the cause of the catholic church than any catholic currently walking the earth today.
