Welcome, Pope Francis!

The smoke turned white, the lucky winner was announced, a (great) name was picked and we've got ourselves a now Pope. Don't expect much theological reform from that one, though. Perhaps, if he succeeds at shaming the Roman Curia into doing it, he might effect some major clean-up deep into St. Peter and the Vatican that is long overdue.

When I say long, it spans of course over multiple centuries. Hopefully he'll clean house and won't get hurt in doing so as they are some really bad people waiting for him in some obscure corners. If he could at least achieve it during his papacy, I'd be more than satisfied!
