      <![CDATA[I think Beyonce should be the next pope.<br />
<br />
if not her, then POprah.<br />
<br />
And if neither of these are possible, then I think the cards should pick Carl Icahn. yes yes, I know he's not catholic. But what the church really needs now is a total makeover, which only a high powered business magnate can provide. Pope Carl's first speech should go roughly as follows "Its time we stopped pretending that this is anything other than what it really is. We are a gigantic, and immensely successful corporation".  this evangelist of capitalism can replace those cassocks with charcoal suits, an finally pursue copyright protection for the holy bible. No more worries about schisms or heretics, since the breakaway sects can always be hauled into court for using the scriptures without permission. This ought to cause the church's stock to rise over night, as they always do when Icahn takes over. <br />

      <![CDATA[In accordance with what @1 said, the official reason is still a valid reason, Benedict XVI is really sick and frail. His brother says he can hardly walk, and his doctor has forbidden any more airplane trips.<br />
All these factors can be true, and he still could have easily followed tradition and continued his papacy until death no matter how hot the scandals get.<br />
The Pope is simply pooped out. Get it?

      <![CDATA[The New York Daily News.  Ah, now THERE's a trustworthy source.  Don't know  La Repubblica's reputation but a bunch of vagueness punctuated with a couple of oddly specific details smells a bit of Friday fishiness.  Oh, I'm sure the church is guilty of a multitude of crimes but I have my doubts about them being documented "in two volumes bound in red covers".

That will make it easier to convert them to the central banker-sponsored organized religion that portends to worship Mother Nature -- thereby removing any threats to central banker power, at the same time. Just like China, and all the communist countries do.

<br />
The Church began in scandal, as all institutions that concentrate power over the many into the hands of the few do. It's been rotten to the core as long as it has existed. From Benedict IX, who sold the papacy and conducted mass orgies in the Vatican himself, to Pope Pius XII, who signed treaties with Hitler and never excommunicated a single Nazi, except Goebbels, who got the axe for marrying a Protestant. From Mother Theresa, who lobbied against contraception, to Cyril of Alexandria, who dragged a mathematician and Librarian of Alexandria into the street and had her murdered in broad daylight. These supposed "keepers of morality" have been anything but.

How can anyone be dumb enough to continue to support these strange old buzzards with their bizarre voodoo & superstitions & fairy tales? ...hocus-pocus-dominocus indeed! <br />
<br />
I call upon you, Pope Rat, to submit yourself to the Court at the Hague, to be prosecuted for your crimes against humanity. And in the meantime, time to tax the Criminal Catholic Empire!
