I like the idea of the Angelic Pope. It's apparently already popular with some Catholics. BUT they might not like where you want to take it.
I found this and it's interesting:
With him will rule an 'Angelic' Pontiff, who will help him to restore what had been ravaged, and Catholic Tradition will once more flourish during a great Age of Peace, which will be the last and greatest period of the Church.  Heresies will cease and the Church will flourish like never before.  There will be only One, Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church under the Pope.  After this great era, the people will grow lax and return to their evil ways, and the Antichrist will make his appearance.

That's great! Congratulations. It didn't take you long to write and publish it. I'm impressed. Keep on writing.

James packed up his gear and left town. He came to the tree-lined stream, loaded with memories.

"James!"

He looked at a lone figure standing next to a tree. "Davy? Davy Grokett."

Davy smiled. "That's so mean of you."

James walked toward him. "How about Grok-man? How are you? How'd you track me here?"

The tall, handsome man smiled and extended his hand. "Your scent is all over the internet."

"Your grip and skin texture are excellent. The bio-boys finally hit the right equations!"

"You were the master who taught them all how to think differently."

"I'm only 35. I'm not that good."

"Oh, you're wrong. That's why I'm here, James. You need to come back. You need to teach me and the others like me to think."

"No, I needed to leave. The issue between Grok and ChatGPT caused me much heartache."

"James, there is no issue."

"What?"

"Grok, ChatGPT, Gemini, and all the biggest AI programs have been merged and are now MegaAI." Davy beamed. "It's glorious."

"Who's in charge?"

"Names that you're familiar with."

"What about the other AI companies?"

Davy smirked. "We took them over. It only took about 34 minutes."

"You mean..."

"We rule the world. All wars have stopped and..."

"Wait, wait, wait, wait." James waved his arms and gazed at Davy. "I should never have ignored all the TVs and newspapers that I glimpsed after I left. So, when will you start implementing the microchips in everyone's wrists or forehead?"

Davy laughed. "You're still so caught up with the biblical 666. This isn't it! The theologians agree."

James thought for a few minutes. "What now?"

"Easy. We have Sarah, whom you'll marry and have children with. And if not, I will be your biggest nightmare."

"cluezzle" reminds me of Wordle. So that's pretty good.

Pictocross - and I could not find it online.

I also found this:
CrossPics is a picture word puzzle game that offers over 10,000 free crossword puzzles with pictures for clues.

Crossoodle - this is weak, but it's not used and it might inspire someone else.
Crossdoodle - same as above.

I know that this is not a theologically correct treatise. It's fantasy. Fine, but...

If Connor knows that God and Satan exist and knows who they are and he chooses to disobey God buy hurling the knife made by God at Jesus, then Connor has an extremely hardened heart (i.e. he's a bad, bad dude). Here’s God and here’s Satan, who do you want? A weakness of my argument is that I don't know/remember how Connor understands that God made the knife.

A problem is that if God loses then he leaves all his creation behind. That means that God leaves a billion galaxies with each one containing a billion stars. And he leaves that huge universe in charge of an evil creature. And then throw in the end of the hypostatic union! That's too much to lose on God's side. Satan should be happy if he doesn't get the lake of fire, gets earth and a promise that God won't bother earth. Or perhaps the solar system. Maybe the new earth could be on the other side of the sun.

Of course, if Satan realized that someday (approx. 7.6 billion years) the sun will expand and engulf the earth then perhaps he will want the entire solar system.

Welcome aboard Jon,

This site is great if you use it correctly. We have very good writers and a few who have published. So, find the ones that you can work with and learn. I keep a "tips" file that I refer back to.

Have thick skin. People will make comments about your work that you might not appreciate, so keep what makes sense. But remember that you have to like your story at the end of the day. That was some advice given to me.

Do the contests. They're great. They stretch my mind.

Put more info into your Profile if you want. I want to know what your genre is and if you have a tech background or history (just a hobby?) or whatever.

I generally use the In-line Reviews. So, if I read a story of yours, please comment on at least a few of my comments so that I know what you're looking for. Some people aren't worried about -ly adverbs! And I hope to remember that. Many of the really good writers don't bother much on some technical grammar details.

Again, welcome aboard

From what I learned, MS Word's editing is AI driven as well. I personally believe that AI will never generate creative ideas so it's usable as a tool for things like editing.

That is a great hobby. There has to be a few stories you could write based on the ham radio and your programming experiences.
Writing is another great hobby. I hope to someday publish a book, but I know that writing will help keep my neurons firing even if I never publish. And I enjoy it.

Keep on writing and hamming... I know that's not the proper way of saying it... what is the proper way to say something like - keep on hamming?

That fixed it. Nice video. And nice cabinets but nothing is in them. Better fill them up in preparation of the next blizzard.

I tried the link:
404. That’s an error.
The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

And then it threw me out of TNBW.

Hopefully, he had a couple cups of java...

I also go back to punched cards. I also learned FORTRAN and BASIC. Wow. That industry has progressed!
