(NEWSER) – Black smoke poured from the Sistine Chapel's vaunted chimney again this morning, signalling that the second and third rounds of voting from the 115 cardinals gathered inside had failed to yield a pope. Two more rounds await the cardinals this afternoon, reports the AP, and voting will resume after lunch. The votes take place in silence, adds the BBC, with no debate allowed; if there's no consensus after three days, however, the cardinals may take a daylong break for prayer and informal discussion.
