    The article "black smoke" by CNN (Rome) is about them waiting to see when the second round of voting is done and the black smoke will rise and a new pope would be decided.

    The quote that really stood out to me in the story was when it said, "No smoke emerged after the first vote Wednesday morning, meaning the cardinals then entered a second round of voting." This really stood out to me because they making the people wait a long time just to select another pope.

   I honestly , think its not that hard to pick somebody to be the pope, I wonder why the pope step down anyway, the last pope to resign was Pope Gregory XII in 1415 long ago. I think he stepping down because somebody have found out something he might of did or allowed in his church.

I can't really draw an inference to this because I'm not catholic, before I converted into Islam I used to go to church and read the bible that is the closes I ever got to catholic people or religion.
Do you have questions for the old pope? Do you have questions for the new pope? Is they making it a big deal? Do you think the pope would change and do more good stuff for people?
