@Clement Jaeho Chung -Hey Clement! Yes, I heard about Mendonca too. I think he is too radical to get in. If he does, I'll be Greek Orthodox because I would consider there is no more Catholic Church. I read that there are several liberals who are now out of the running to be Pope.....Parolin, Becciu, Tagle, and Zuppi (whose trip to Ukraine is apparently a failure) have no chance to become Pope. I think the next Pope will either be Eijk, Erdo, Sarah (my favorite pick), or perhaps Mueller....or Burke. Perhaps they might pick an obscure Cardinal no one has heard about who is not liberal. Or, they could do as the did in the Middle Ages afew times...go outside the College of Cardinals and pick a holy Bishop, or a monk from an abbey who has a reputation for holiness and orthodoxy.
Anyway, I don't think we will get a Francis II or worse.
Tomorrow is the last day of school where I teach......final exams are over, and I had to fail 3 students. They didn't do their work during the year,

My family and I are spending part of Summer at our vacation house in Stone HArbor, New Jersey.....1 block from the beach and the Atlantic Ocean. My aunt and uncle in Beverly Hills , California invited me to visit for the month of August so I might go. My sister, her name is Keiko is also a teacher, but she is a college professor and older than me by 6 years invited me to go with her to Rome for 2 weeks while she attends a convention. I've been to Rome 3x before, all durin the time of the great Benedict XVI. The city felt Catholic then, it was great. But I told my sister, "No thanks, I don't want to visit Francis' Rome."
