Conclave

The election of the Pope + 118 candidates x (power+ambition) = trouble. A dark horse candidate – a cardinal created by the late pope in secret, rumours and twists between ballots, skeletons jumping out of closets before finally, white smoke blows from the chimney. Papabiles reflect – on holiness: 'I believe my heart is pure. But how can any one of us say for sure we act as we do? In my experience, the basest sins are often committed for the highest motives;' – on the modern world: 'Once God explained all mysteries. Now He has been usurped by conspiracy theorists. They are the heretics of the age.'
