[Starmix]

Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost has been elected Pope on the second day of Conclave, taking the name of Leo XIV, after becoming the first-ever American to be elected to the position in the 2,000-year history of the Catholic Church.

Almighty God, Lord Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit, thank you for our new Pope and may he contribute more and much better for humanity's sake, peace, and spreading the word of God in the whole universe. Prayers from the Philippines.


Congrats, America, for having a new American Pope.

God bless America for having first time after 2000 years of history of the Catholic Church, an American the successor of the late Pope Francis. May God Almighty guide and protect Pope Leo Francis.

It seems more than obvious that the new Pope Leone XIV and Donald Trump, despite both being Americans, have two decidedly different points of view. In this Trumpian period of "America first", the US President seems to see only power, money and wealth. Pope Leo instead has chosen the path of peace and humility.​

When grace speaks for you. The man has only been cardinal for just two years and he was elected to be a pope.

That's a normal thing being born from parents with different values. Donald Trump grew up wealthy. He's also brilliant, while the new Pope Pope Leo Francis grew up with a vision to serve God and humanity not money.

Think that the US Secretary of State, Steve Bannon defines the election of Pope Leo XIV "the worst choice for American Catholics MAGA (Make America Great Again)". In essence, for him, it is as if it were an anti-Trumpian vote. This statement leaves me completely speechless!

Let us wait and see about the progress of President Trump. He still has many years to serve America, and so far, he is doing right for the Americans. Pope Leo X1V also pledged to follow what the late Pope Francis had done and not yet done.

Congratulations to him, i pray he does the right thing always and even do a better work than the previous pope.

In fact, Pope Leonardo places himself in continuity with his predecessor Pope Francis who among all his phrases had repeated several times this: "build bridges and not walls".

With the help of the Holy Spirit and the Cardinals anywhere in the world there is nothing impossible for the new pope to reach and achieve what the people expect on him. His phrase is very symbolic and meaningful yet tough but with God, it's not impossible.
