Black Pope Could Follow Barack Obama's Election. by MCUsman(m): 4:43pm On Nov 06, 2008
The election of Barack Obama as the first African-American US President could pave the way for the election of the first black Pope.
Recent Popes, beginning with John XXIII and Paul VI, had brought priest "from all nations and races" to Rome to take up senior positions in the Vatican,
Who knows the next time cardinals gathered to elect a Pope they could "in their wisdom" choose an African.

If a black pope is what it will take for all people of color to get over their RACE issues, I will support it, because this is just ridiculous. Watching a people claim not to be racially biased but continue to push race at every issue is just ridiculous!! Clearly shows why we as a people continue to remain where we are today, we seem to have so many pillars to blame for our indolence.

The Catholic Church is a religion that has more behind its name. A pope cannot be Black. There is more to the Roman Catholic Church than meets the eye. Do your research. Read books, you will find out more about this organisation that appears church.
There is no such thing as Pope or need for it in Christendum and so there will never be a black Pope except the Jesuit leader figuratively speaking.

Care to explain what is behind the catholic church that is unseen?. Is it not the same thing people like you said about the white house?. It's like Africans are truly retarded for real. There must be a myterious side to everything. Go to the moon, naaa juju dey there; Go to the white house, naa, they will assasinate me; Go to vatican, naaa there is something behind those walls that can never accept my color; Cast your votes to choose your leader, naaa, what for? they will always rig it etc.

Muslims should first of all elect a black Imam in Saudi. Why should christians be the first to take a bold step?. Start from Hausas getting one single international award that is different from embezzling our funds and sniffing gutter undecided.

An indigene of Enugu state cannot go to Anambra and run for state office. It's in Nigeria that the term "indigene" has great resonance .
