In response to:
Fool and bully! - I answered it for you before, and will not again.
The resignation of Pope Benedict comes as a surprise. Now all eyes will turn to the College of Cardinals, which will elect his successor by Easter (this year, near the end of March).
Although I am not a Catholic, the news of the resignation was profoundly disheartening to me. Notwithstanding its flaws (or, more properly, some profoundly flawed leaders), the Catholic Church has been stalwart in standing as a bastion for eternal truths, even when they are not popular.

SO-- Then call me names like an exhausted OAF and run away!
