NCR Conclave database

The National Catholic Reporter, (NCR) based in Kansas City, Missouri, USA, has just published a brilliant database listing all the cardinals taking part in the Conclave which begins tomorrow, 7 May. See the link below.

Click each tab to view information on each of the cardinals who will be electing the next pope. You can sort cardinals by birth continent, religious order, which pope made them a cardinal, as well as their stances on seven issues facing the church. Cardinals making NCR's "papabile" list can also be highlighted.

Hover over each cardinal to learn more about him. A blue dot next to an issue indicates the cardinal has expressed support for positions and teachings that generally align with those of Pope Francis. A red dot indicates disagreement with Francis' stances, and a gray dot means his position is unclear.
