It looks like Cardinal Peter Kodwo Appiah Turkson of Ghana is now firmly in this group known as the papabili, or possible popes.    John Allen, the veteran vaticanista for the U.S.-based National Catholic Reporter, headlined his story on Turkson “Say hello to Africa’s next great hope to be pope.”

While this is possible

it is not certain. There

are many other Roman

Catholic Cardinals who

are qualified to be pope

and would like to be.

The present pope is healthy

but he is also 82 years old.

I am happy that GOD is color blind...but I understand your point of view...we have to put this color test behind us and look at the human spirit through HIS eyes...

Yet most human s are not color blind.
