Loved the ‘Doom’ analogy for Honorius III.
Great link - funny and educational.

Oh, BTW, it’s argued by some that the reason why the papal chairs had an opening on the seat was because a woman had once become pope and remained a pope for a couple of years, thus deceiving the whole of the Christian world for a while. It was discovered she was female while giving birth to a child in the middle of a procession. So, from then on, they just decided to make sure the next pope was indeed a man by feeling up his genitals before placing the miter on his head.

Isn't there a better way?
Like requiring the pope to open a jar or something?

Worst timing EVER to crap out a child.
