Quote:
Pope Adrian IV (c. 1100 – 1 September 1159),[1] born Nicholas Breakspear or Breakspeare, was Pope from 1154 to 1159.
Adrian IV has been the only Englishman so far to occupy the papal chair.

But there's a chance the next one will be Damien I

I suspect you'll be a complete outsider.
A) Not Catholic
B) Atheist
C) Too young
D) Not sufficiently high enough in the hierarchy(e.g. Cardinal)
Do you speak Latin?That might count.
