A Facebook page wrongfully claims that in case former Manila archbishop Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle is elected pope in the next conclave, he will be the first Asian to become Bishop of Rome and head of the Roman Catholic Church.

‘He who enters the conclave as pope, leaves it as a cardinal,’ the saying goes. But this may not necessarily be true with Filipino cardinal Luis Antonio ‘Chito’ Tagle, who has become ‘papabile’ now that he holds an important office at the Vatican.
