Good puzzle. The eyes of the world are watching what has to be a very difficult decision.

I probably shouldn't stir the pot, to say "Just let the Catholic church die off." The older basilicas and cathedrals are little more than museums as it is, and the Vatican would make a superb 5-star hotel and restaurant.

So I won't. :)

LOL - Kristen, I'm glad you didn't go there! :)

after initial ll:

el the 8 clue in r20 (completely placeable)
ll
there are a number of ways to solve the rest but what i did was use el on the 6 clue in c1 to dot r3-4 (you can get more dots but they are not necessary)
ll to finish
no guessing

Nice image Travis.:)

thank you :)

Nice puzzle, Travis. Trickier than I first thought. Black smoke today...maybe white tomorrow?

thanks carol yes maybe :)

Really fun solve, Travis.

thank you teresa :)

Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Buenos Aires has been elected the 266th pope of the Catholic Church, taking the name Pope Francis.

Thank you, Kristen. I am happy to see that Catholic-bashing is still in vogue. Who should we pick on next?

Don't worry; I have equal disdain for all the other religions. The Catholics just seem to be doing a better job of imploding by themselves.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.
