Are you excited to see which asshole will be voted to be the pope whome then everyone ignores?
Some media outlets are trying to rattle the vote with hysteria that the "conservative pope" might be elected - as if they all are not conservatives.
Nevertheless, I guess Benedict was considered the "conservative" one, thus everyone made fun of him until he resigned and then they chose the pope smiley face - or at least that's how I remember things, I wasn't paying much attention.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
