Even for someone that doesn't believe in God or doesn't want to believe in anything, any kind of higher power, if you are somewhat conscious and somewhat aware of life and the world, you would agree that there's a tension here. There's got to be something. There's got to be more than what we're just seeing. There's a constant pull between what's good and bad. I wish I could explain it better.

How was the pope chosen? It's at a conclave, that's what it's called. And all the cardinals from around the world will come together. And they'll pray, and then they'll cast ballots. And then when a certain number of those votes are passed, then the pope is determined. But it's through the voting process of the different cardinals.

I was there in 2013 whenever Pope Benedict stepped down and Pope Francis was elected. That was a cool experience, man. There were, I don't know, 20,000 people, 30,000 people there, St. Peter's Square, probably maybe more than that. But there were so many people. It was the most energetic thing I've experienced in my life. It was so cool. We're all out there.

And, you know, whenever the Pope is elected, they're on the Sistine Chapel. There's a bunch of movies out there, a lot of it's just like Hollywood stuff, but they do go in the Sistine Chapel, they vote, then the smoke will come out, either the black or the white smoke, whenever the white smoke comes. It means, you know, a pope has been elected.

So we're all out there, everyone hanging up, hanging around, just waiting, They meet in the morning, and then they meet in the evening. And they continue to meet and vote until the pope is elected. And then the white smoke will come, and they choose one. So we're meeting that evening, and it went late. So we're like, something's going on. And finally the white smoke comes, and it just went crazy.

Like, I'm... I'm the new Pope, but I'm just paraphrasing it. Basically, if you want me to, like, I need your prayers.
