Almost two weeks ago, C. G. P. Grey uploaded their latest video to YouTube. This five minute educational video explains the path one must take if one seeks to become Pope. It has already been viewed in excess of 1.5 million times.
So What?
Since a new Pope is elected so infrequently, most people outside of the Catholic Church are not familiar with the process. This video provides a good basic overview.
- How many men have served as Pope during your lifetime? (check out this Wikipedia entry to review a basic chart)
- What (if anything) did you learn from the video? What about the process would you like to know more about?
- Do you know how the top person or people in your religious tradition are selected?
