A pretty simple thread.
Who are some of the men who could have ended up being The Pope of the Roman Catholic Church but didn't? I realize this may be hard to find information on, since their is a shroud of secrecy around all papal conclaves, but I'm curious to see what is out there.
This thread is to discuss all possible Popes up until the twentieth century. I will be starting a post-1900 thread in just a bit.
Edit: The post-1900 thread is now up.
