Pope Benedict XVI to resign.
by McLewis Mon Feb 11, 2013 6:13 pm
Apparently, due to health issues. First time in almost 600 years a Pope has voluntarily abdicated. As a history buff, this is quite interesting. Always found the Papal enclave immensely fascinating.
I wonder what this means for Catholicism on a whole, given it's current problems.

Well, ol' Ratzinger McNazipants retiring certainly won't hurt the Catholic church

Really hope they replace him with someone who actually deserves to be the pope. Not someone with a shoddy background and values which raises questions on his character and knowledge about his own faith (and others)

Well you really can't really become pope by being a moderate.

I remember his inauguration in 05 like yesterday. Primarily because it was around the same time Liverpool won CL

Generally popes aren't fired. They do have a habit of getting killed off if they get too crazy though.

I'm not buying this..
I bet there's something that the public doesn't know yet.. Something scandalous and he's leaving before somebody finds out.
Mwhahahaha.
