The Book on the Trinity, every faithful Catholic priest would love as his next present

Apparently someone takes care that the number of electors be 133, a number significant for some secret societies.
I found it strange and ominous that “health problems” of the absent were never discussed in any detail and the decision was taken for him.
I think the issue might be that the Cardinal suffers from dementia, and is not always lucid. According to the rules of the Papal Law on Conclave, each ballot session requires such exactitude, that if someone who had dementia participated, he might start inserting too many ballots or not submitting his ballot, each occurrence of which would cause the vote to be cancelled.
Herewith, you can say goodbye to an African pope; all Africans should feel rightly snubbed by this paternalistic intervention of papal nuncio, the Dutch van Megen.
I think that it may, indeed, convince the African Cardinals to vote for a non-European, yes.
