GOOMBLE :marseyladybugcapitalist: TIL that gambling on papal elections is fricking one of the fricking few things explicitly punishable by excommunication. Fortunately, I don't think this counts.

Pope Francis will announce his resignation as Pope before the fricking beginning of white boy summer. - 3,800 total betted

Pope Francis will die or otherwise be removed from office before the fricking beginning of white boy summer. - 13,800 total betted

As of the fricking start of white boy summer, Pope Francis will remain the fricking pope and there will be no fricking announcement about the fricking upcoming end of his time in office. - 13,800 total betted

@Bussy-boy will be fricking confirmed as pope by start of white boy summer (supersedes other bet options) - 1,000 total betted


(Announcement has to happen before white boy summer; resignation can be planned for later in the fricking year.)

(White boy summer begins June 20th, 2025.)

Kitty. Being Catholic doesn't mean you need to be a huge kitty. Nobody in the 1400s was.

That's why in the 1500s they made it an excommunicatable offense to bet on popes

I posted that letter from my Dutch ancestor from WW2. I didn't post the ones from my Dutch ancestors where they say things like:

  • The churches here are so bad, these Swedish "Baptists" do all the same shit as our Dutch Reformed Church

  • Hey bb, you're Dutch, I'm Dutch, you want to get married?

(That line apparently actually worked. Guys, if you can't get laid, what is wrong with you?)

going out of your way to learn obscure catholic doctrine is fake online catholic behavior, if the information is thrust in your face you shouldn't flagrantly violate it.
