But at the end of the day, the Church's teachings don't conflict, and the Holy Father's responsibility is to uphold those teachings. And despite the way Francis did express himself, maybe differently than other popes have in the past, he was so clear on marriage, he was so clear on abortion. I mean, his language on abortion was among the strongest in recent popes.
On gender, very clear on gender, absolutely, on the whole gender ideology issue. So at the end of the day, whether a pope may, from the world's view, seem more left of center or more right of center, we don't look at it that way in the Church, because the teachings don't break away. They work all together in unison to balance each other out.
So I do think that there's some interesting people that have been brought up, and You know, there's this list that's been floating around since Pope Francis went into the hospital back in February, and I don't know where they got it. It could be from one of the main reporters, Nicole Winfield, who's been covering the Vatican for years. I don't know if it's her list or not.
But it's all over the map with the popes. There are some popes that they're describing as very liberal. Some popes they're just describing as very conservative. At the end of the day, the Church is the Church, and God is going to put in that position the person that he thinks is right for that position right now in time. So I have faith. In the church, I love the church.
I came back to the church after being 20 years away from it. I just think it's beautiful the way we have this, I don't want to be so technical to call it a system, but this beautiful way that it's handed down over the centuries, and I trust that process.
again, on these issues, especially in the area of immigration and, as you mentioned, charitable giving. There are teachings that we can look at and go to the Catechism of the Catholic Church for this, that we can have healthy discussions on these things, and I think that's what's great about the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Faith.
I mean, if you look at the body of teaching in the Church, it's massive, and there really is something for everybody at the end of the day.
Oh, that one, my friend, we'll have to consult the Lord on that. But the process itself, so right now we are, the Pope, I just checked with my sources in Rome, the Pope's body will be at the Vatican. It will be moved there on Wednesday at St. Peter's.
And so people who are going there, maybe on pilgrimage, already plan to be there, maybe people who are coming in just to pay their respects, they will be able to pay their respects to the Pope. And usually they have a period of mourning. It could be as long as nine days, but I'm hearing it's going to be a little bit shorter than that.
Then they'll have the funeral, and then after that the conclave will convene. Usually it's in about two weeks. So within two weeks they'll convene, and it has to be at 90. Cardinals have to approve in order for the next pope to be chosen. And I don't know. I mean, it really is up to the Holy Spirit, up to the Lord, but we'll see this white smoke, and when we see the white smoke, we have a pope.
Black smoke means there's indecision at that point.
Yeah, thanks, Vincent. Just to let you know, I'll be in Italy. My husband and I live there part-time, and I'll be going over next week, and I'll probably be reporting from Rome, so I'm happy to answer any other questions you have and be on again.
