What's the big deal about an Inauguration?

People like ceremonies.

And there are 1.18 billion Catholics.

I'm with you on that

It's important to many people and considering the large number of Catholics, the news knows that a good number of viewers want to be kept up to date.

Its simple

Eenie, meenie, miney, moe,
Catch an alterboy by the toe.
If he hollers, let him go.
Our father who art in heaven said to pick
The very best one
And you are noooot (not) it

Shouldn't take long

The pope is the leader of one of the largest religious organizations in the world. He will set the tone for the church in the years to come.

Not that I am a catholic.. but to a huge % of the world population that is, plus those that have a lot of respect for the catholic church, the leader who is supposed to be the human connection to the word and will of God is a pretty big deal...

But in perspective.. not even the same coverage or fanfare that there is for the Superbowl or some celebrity's baby...
