HABEMUS PAPAM

I see on TV happy crowds, enchanted with the conclave process, and I remember those Italian crowds I've seen in black and white enchanted with Mussolini, or worse, the enchanted german crowd with their own oh, so carismatic leader...friend and confidant of that italian afore mentioned...
A leader for your soul? History for you salvation? Who'll remember this particular conclave next year? Another path would be a personal orientation, one that may result in a spirituality foucused closer to ourselves, not events perceived as great or otherwise...
There is no Easter. All weeks are Easter. The passion, death and resurrection theatrics have been hashed over way to many times already. Gibson's movie, unseen by me, was still the straw that broke my ex-catholic camel's back. You can't be taking that kind of fantasy seriously! Blood letting for the masses! ! I think is high time He got off that cross, and started laughing once again.
There is no redempiton; never was required. There won't be a final judgment. Our consience is our judgment, not final, but constant, total, and only judge. There is no original sin, as there is no trinity. Only human inventions, evolved to the point of achieving stratagem-status designed by those best postioned to exploit them for personal gain, and who, to do so, will adhere to any system, be it patriarch, obsolete, and devoid of common sense.
