Why was smoke release late? Two possible reasons are cited

The Italian media, after the black smoke smoke from the Chimney of the Sistine Chapel, only came out at 9:04 pm, instead of originally planned to 7 pm, they presented the theory of why it was so late. No one outside the closed door knows exactly what happened because there is an absolute secret of what is happening in the Sistine Chapel – where the votes on the conclave.

But the Vatican experts say this is the most likely reason: the Cardinals are late with the vote since the « Extra Omnes » – a proclamation that binds anyone who does not participate in the vote to leave Sistinek – was at 17.45, so later than originally planned, reports, reports Corriere della Sera.

They also add that it is possible that the reason for the later start to the first round of the vote is the meditations of Cardinal Ranier Cantalamesse, scheduled for the first day of the conclave. This meditation was aimed at « helping Cardinals to think about a very serious task that awaits them and the need to, when choosing a Roman first -grader, in everything to act with the right intention, trying only to fulfill only God’s will, aiming solely on the good of the whole Church. »
