Never heard of Pope Joan, a woman dressed as a man who allegedly got elected Pope during the early middle ages, fell in love with a priest, got pregnant and gave birth during Holy Mass? Well, it's probably only a legend, but to make sure this doesn't happen (again), the new Pope has to prove he's a biological male in a very hands-on kind of way...

He made an incredible impression on the faithful. He has my support. Let us see where he goes, before back stabbing rapprochement.

Native Americans in these colonies where never seen as equal by the Whites and where usually enslaved in one form or the other. Most native Americans on the continent of America do not identify with the colony-states that now claim affiliation to this continent and simply identify with their native Americanness. I will give you this much that while we Canadians do no like being confused with the U.S. and being called "American", we are as American as any other country on this continent. "..... people are more likely to call them Americans rather than .....". As far back as being a Primary School child in Australia, in the 60's, the only Americans we referred to were from the USA. Indigenous were referred to as Native American (USA), Native Chilean or Native Brasilian etc. If being called an "American" is so distasteful then maybe it is time to do what the Netherlands has done, place a stress on the UNITED STATES of AMERICA, CANADA etc.

Historum | History Forum [think before following links] https://historum.com Groping the Pope's Goolies This humiliating and bizarre ritual was supposedly a reaction to the ascension of a female pope (Joan, Agnes, John VII, or John VIII depending on source) c.855. Does this ritual still take place? Felix Haemerlein, De Nobilitate et Rusticitate Dialogus (c.1490) It doesn't happen nowadays, and I believe it's controversial whether the practice ever took place at all. The seats with holes in exist, but they are no longer used - why they ever were doesn't seem to be clear. Wikipedia quotes from Jacopo d'Angelo de Scarparia, who was at the coronation of Gregory XII in 1406, who dismisses the idea they were used to verify the Pope's ... as an "insane fable". The Loch Ness Monster, the Yeti, Big Foot, Ghosts, Resurrection are all subjects that have believers & disbelievers & some are extremely fanatical about them but none can actually be proven as fact or fiction & which way a person thinks IS THEIR choice of belief.
