Bishop Athanasius Schneider speaks very clearly: "They are not refugees, they are invaders who want to Islamize Europe. They want to destroy historical culture in Europe.”

Catholics worldwide are calling for this man to replace pope Francis. Too bad he's not a Cardinal.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

    Eligibility: Canon law states that any baptized Catholic male can be elected.

Cardinal Status: Since 1378, every Pope has been a cardinal.

Conclave: The cardinals under 80 years old gather to vote in a secret ballot until a new Pope is chosen with a two-thirds majority.

Practicality: While not explicitly stated in church regulations, the tradition of selecting a cardinal as Pope has become the norm

Vatican Announces Time and Date for Funeral of Pope Francis

Simon Kent 22 Apr 2025

The Vatican has decided the funeral for Pope Francis will take place on Saturday, April 26 at 10:00 local time in Rome.

A meeting of cardinals in the Vatican decided the time and date while confirming public viewing can begin Wednesday.


Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican Secretary of State (Prime Minister), is seen praying beside the body of Pope Francis in Vatican City, on April 21, 2025. The deceased spiritual leader of the Catholic Church lies in the chapel of the Santa Marta Guesthouse, which served as his residence during his papacy.

The BBC reports papal funerals have traditionally been elaborate affairs, but Pope Francis acted last year to simplify his arrangements. The outlet continued:

    He will be the first Pope in more than a century not to be buried in the Vatican, in the crypt of St Peter’s Basilica – opting instead to be laid to rest in Rome’s Basilica of St Mary Major, near his favourite icon of the Madonna.

    He also requested to be buried in a simple wooden casket, unlike his predecessors who were buried in the traditional three nesting coffins made of cypress, lead and oak.

Pope Francis’s funeral will take place outdoors in front of St Peter’s Basilica.

The dean of the College of Cardinals, Giovanni Battista Re, will lead the service, per the BBC report.

At the end of the funeral, Re will deliver the final commendation – a concluding prayer where the Pope will be formally entrusted to God – and the body moved for the burial.

Pope Francis – who was born Jorge Mario Bergoglio on December 17, 1936, in Buenos Aires – died early Monday morning at his residence in the Vatican’s Casa Santa Marta, as Breitbart News reported.

He will be taken to St Peter’s Basilica on Wednesday morning ahead of the funeral ceremony, where his casket will remain until burial for the public to pay their respects.

In his final will, Francis specified he would be buried at St. Mary Major basilica outside the Vatican and home to his favorite icon of the Virgin Mary.

excerpt:

Quote
What happens immediately after the Pope dies?

In accordance with the "Ordo Exsequiarum Romani Pontificis," or the "Rite of Burial for Roman Pontiffs," Cardinal Kevin Joseph Farrell will preside over the certification of Francis' death and laying of his body in a coffin Monday evening, according to the Holy See Press Office.

    Farrell is the Church's camerlengo, or cardinal chamberlain.
    He is also tasked with securing the pope's room in Casa Santa Marta and removing the papal ring, the New York Times reported.
    The piece of jewelry, named the Fisherman's Ring, is destroyed after a pope's death, and a new one is forged for the Church's next leader.

Zoom out: The next day, NBC reported, the College of Cardinals will gather to set plans for the pope's funeral.

    The pope's funeral and interment must take place four to six days after his death. Weather permitting, the service traditionally takes place in St. Peter's Square.
    The public mass will be presided over by the dean of the College of Cardinals, currently Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re — though it is unclear if the 91-year-old Re will continue the tradition, CBS notes.

His death also kicks off a nine-day mourning period, known as Novemdiales.
What changes did Francis approve for papal funerals?

Under the second edition of the Rite of Burial for Roman Pontiffs, approved by Pope Francis in April 2024, the pope's remains are immediately placed inside the coffin from which the public will view his body.

    Previously, popes' bodies were placed on a raised platform rather than in an open casket for viewing.
    Additionally, the guidelines moved the ascertainment of the pope's death to his chapel rather than his room.

The changes also nixed the tradition of having three caskets of cypress, lead and oak.

    Pope Francis, instead, intended to be buried in one, zinc-lined wooden coffin.

Here's hoping the next Pope is a Catholic and not a socialist.

Former President Joe Biden to Attend Pope Francis’s Funeral in Rome

Amy Furr 25 Apr 2025

Former President Joe Biden (D) plans to attend Pope Francis’s funeral in Rome.

The news comes after President Donald Trump announced he will be in attendance.

Former First Lady Jill Biden will accompany her husband to the funeral on Saturday to honor the late pope, who died at 88 years old, the Hill reported on Friday.

In a social media post on Monday, the day the Vatican announced the Catholic spiritual leader had died, Biden said, “Pope Francis will be remembered as one of the most consequential leaders of our time and I am better for having known him.”

The former president also said Pope Francis was “a Pope for everyone”:

Trump also reacted to the news of the pope’s passing in a statement posted online. He said, “Rest in Peace Pope Francis! May God Bless him and all who loved him!” according to Breitbart News.

The president later signed an executive order to fly flags across the nation at half-staff in remembrance of Pope Francis. Breitbart News noted that Trump will be accompanied by his wife, First Lady Melania Trump, at the funeral this weekend.
