What it does

If
- current_date_is_start_date_trigger = no
- Their religion is Christianity
Then
- The Christian Church:
  If
  Has “papal dynasty reigns” (a variable the game's script sets)
  Papal dynasty reigns at least @pam papal dynasty capture reigns
  Does not have “papal dynasty capture catalyst fired” (a variable the game's script sets)
  The current phase counts “Three consecutive holders of Papacy come from the same Dynasty”
  Then
  Counts toward the situation's next phase: “Three consecutive holders of Papacy come from the same Dynasty”

“They” is whatever it runs on (the scope it is called in). The scripted triggers and effects it calls link to their own pages; $PARAMETERS$ stay as written: each call fills them in.
