The Pope retires? ?:|

[i-need-a-martini]

I wouldn't have thought it would be the kind of job you retired from - I thought those guys kept their jobs until their death?

I like Cardinal Marc Ouellet too Azureline.  He has a nice face and he looks happy and I think he's a Catholic too.

I hope they chose a new Pope who doesn't mind having his ring kissed.

You naughty naughty monkey.

Here is Nostradamous or St Malachy's predictions about the last Pope.

112 Peter the Roman, who will nourish the sheep in many tribulations; when they are finished, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people. The end.

Obviously it won't be the end of the world (we are all over that old chestnut) but perhaps the prediction is about the end of The Vatican. Perhaps a proper investigation will be held (judge) and the misuse and cover ups of the church will be exposed.

Perhaps we may find proof Jesus didn't die on the cross but escaped to India. Perhaps we may find proof that Jesus was married to Mary and they had children.

Perhaps we will find proof that Paul made up a religion based on his own vision and not Jesus's.

I think it's my fault... I just finished rereading Angelsand Demons yesterday.

Don't get the crazies started with predictions. Revelation 17:10 is indicating this is being fulfilled with the last pope which means Jesus is coming soon:|
