The vast majority of people likely don’t know that .tv isn’t a vanity or official TLD, but the Tuvalu country TLD. And its royalties make up nearly 10% of the state’s budget.

Catholics don’t believe evangelical bullshit about the rapture.

The one on Vermont only is spelled Montpelier, with only one L, whereas the original one in France is spelled Montpellier with 2 Ls.

Some did (the Spanish church from the example I gave named their first pope after the death of Paul VI in 1976), but nothing stops you from having your own conclave of bishops, and have them say that the current Pope has been judged inept to rule (although that has never happened before in the Holy See).

Which would make the line unbroken, the same way that the line was still unbroken when Benedict XVI resigned and Francis was elected pope.

I mean, there are already plenty, for example, Peter III, who leads a Spanish church that believes they are the rightful Church. (Also, antipope is a subjective word, like heretic. From the perspective of various sects, the Pope Francis is the antipope.)

Nothing stops you from calling yourself Pope and claiming you’re the rightful leader of the Church, hereby making you an antipope to the eyes of the Church.

Now is there going to be a relevant antipope, that’s a lot less likely.

The relevancy of antipopes hinged on the political power of the pope. Having the pope at your beck and call was an extremely powerful tool in the Middle Ages. But nowadays, between the secularization of most Catholic countries, and the massive loss of influence of the Catholic Church, an antipope would only have as much influence as his followers would give him, especially since they wouldn’t have the support of the Holy See or the Church.

He was also Director Trench in Control.

The OuLiPo is a French creative writing comitee created in the 60’s that uses original constraints to foster original works.

One of their most famous works is A Void (La Disparition in French), which is a 300 page novel entirely written without using the letter E, which is the one banned by the instance. (And yes, there is an English translation that was also written entirely without the letter E)
