      Drexel Gregory I think Parolin will be shown as a humble, hard working, incredibly intelligent, resourceful and unshowy person whose deepest concern is using his abilities to calm tensions, create harmony and smooth the ground to enable his boss to most easily carry out his mission. Unlike the two mentioned predecessors, I don't feel the same degree of partisanship and machinations with which the SoS position is often associated. I feel very much Parolin does not see himself in the very grandiose way Sodano and Bertone did, preferring to adopt a far lower profile as outlined above.... just my opinion....

    This Cardinal stacking has been going on for centuries so one must ask; Just how much does the Holy Ghost really assist in choosing a Pope? Surely "being Guided by the Holy Ghost" is a hard pill to swallow???? Perhaps God is just a passive God and "what will be will be" so far as mankind goes. No interference from God whatsoever.

    Okpaleke is not less conservative compared to Kaigama. Nigerian bishops as a bunch are conservative. Okpaleke didn't become bishop by being a "Francis man", if by Francis man you mean liberal.
    +Okpaleke was rejected by the diocese he was earlier appointment to, the people claimed the bishop will be unable to communicate in the dialect of the rural diocese and claimed that Cardinal Arinze simply appointment his man without looking at the needs of the people.
    +Okpaleke showed a gentle disposition, led as much as he could and resigned when he knew he couldn't unite the diocese under him.
    He was without a see for a while until a new diocese was created close to his home town and he was named bishop of the new diocese.
    His diocese is about 5 years old...and he was named cardinal! Certainly he is not less conservative

I do recognize that I am lacking in that department. Please pray for me that I may be more charitable. My words, poorly chosen as they were however, I believe stand.

I love the Holy Father and pray for him but its a stretch calling him a great Pope.

      @@practice965 The pope is cleaning up the church finances. It is not a glamourising job, it’s not appealing to the faithful but it needed to bone. Europe is lost for the faith for at least the next 50 years so the pope needs to delude European influence as much as possible., again not appealing but it needs to be done.
      What defines a great pope? Pope XII was publicly seen as great pope, but we know now his autocratic papacy stopped functioning after 1948 and the cardinals elected the antithesis with John XIII who almost destroyed the European church with Vaticanum II. Without the style of Pius XII probably no John XIII, without the style of Benedict XVI no Francis.
      The label “the Great” is almost never rightly accorded by contemporaries. Time will tell.

Cardinals are NOT appointed primarily because they have to know each other. but they are appointed to elect the next pope. and to elect him from premises that are clearly anchored in Vatican 2 and its documents. this way, Allen will understand why Francis decides and acts the way he does. as it is, he thinks the Pope is motivated by desires to make cardinals out of people Allen thinks are Bergoglio clones!!! really now...

      You are correct C.D. such inspired appointments. Just ignore the Tridentine critics. They are living in the 17th century. 😒👎

      There is actually no canon law which prevents a pope from creating female cardinals. Cardinals do not have to be priests.
