man he looks really weird

he's Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger of Germany and he chose the name Benedict XVI

oh yeah he's also against feminism, married priests, seperation of church and state, apparently screwed over(excuse the pun) many of the priest abuse victims, and there's a rumor he was in the Hitler Youth(although unwillingly)

[sarcasm]great choice huh?[/sarcasm]

Well, he's a big conservative and we'll probably be in conclave again within the next ten years, so i'm not too worried at this point...

though you're right, not very papal looking, but thats just because Jonh Paul II is definitely one of the greats and it will be hard to replace him so nobody would feel right it seems. It'll just take time, god bless benedict XVI :rolleyes:

Mah, he's a scary choice.

Oh, on a side note, Archbishop Iakovos also recently passed away, and if I had been here earlier in the week, I'd have mentioned it then.  Sad how the pope gets all the attention.  Tongue

Heil!

And Saladin, you're right.  His face looks like an aging frog.

based on his record of virulently anti-gay rhetoric, I am totally confident that Pope Veinydick will stand up to the homos – which I think is especially admirable coming from a guy who looks like the anal love child of Zell Miller and that Beretta guy.

Where the hell did that come from Mole?

The pope that just died was also very conservative
I think what happened was that he mellowed out as he got old
