This is just Obama staffers watching The West Wing, Catholic edition.
totally serious religion, you’d think someone would write this stuff down
They probably did
It’s just in the Vatican basement and nobody wants to go down there
worse, it’s probably written down in latin
No they aren’t
I wonder what they thought about the blowjob scene
It would be funny if they take the “wrong” lessons from the film and begin plotting to undermine candidates and forming liberal and conservative factions
Ah who am I kidding, of course they’ll do that anyway
somehow i doubt this is remotely true outside of “some of us watched the movie between its release and now” and it’s getting clickbait spun into “they’re preparing for the real thing by watching a movie!”
lying for clicks? preposterous! why would they do that??1?
It is mandatory for cardinals to take a fat rip of their vape during the conclave
Blowing fat clouds to signal a new pope is chosen
If it doesn’t come out milky the pope is rejected by God
Funny that the diddlers in the Vatican need to look to the diddlers in Hollywood for details on how to run their religion.
film is so back
Every real Catholic knows that the Conclave must begin with The Precession of the Simulacra
They should ask chatgpt.

Intersex pope time, baybee!
To be fair, this is probably one of those things that, like a lot of Catholic Church rituals, is steeped in pointless ceremony, like everyone needs to kneel and blink twice when the man with the censure enters the room, and look to the left if the censure is emitting visible smoke, but stand up and clasp their hands if it isn’t. Or something like that.
Most of the ceremony here has a point and that’s generally preventing the Holy Roman Emperor from fucking with the voting. It’s really, really hard to commit Papal electoral fraud because of all the dumb shit.
Actually this is true for a lot of Catholic ritual with the caveat that the point is usually something like “dunking on Marcionites”

These guys will be stoked when they learn about what Napoleon got up to.
There isn’t like a 1500 year old instruction manual?
