Pope to Resign

[Andrew Ford]

Spotted this this-morning:

I don't know how true it is but it could explain away the mysteriously sudden & unexpected resignation...

think that's a wind up

If it is true, then that's certainly upset the apple cart...

think that's a wind up

One would hope so, but the group who posted it are a fairly serious bunch...
I guess we'll just have to wait & see if any more comes to light...

I saw that this morning but the site it was originally posted on isn't very credible. Later in the day however i stumbled on this:

I've been brought up a Catholic and I would say I'm a Christian. However, the idea that a Pope is infallible does not sit right. Then again it seems, on the face of , that the Vatican as an organisation is infected - as much as society in general these days. In this day and age, corrupt people try to disguise themselves. Paedophiles, drug abusers, sex offenders hide themselves as police officers, teachers, priests, children's TV hosts and charity workers. Is it the church and the idea of it which is wrong or the people that try to use it for the wrong reasons?

Nothing should surprise me any more but some things never cease to amaze me! cheers for the links

Now another tale appears on another site...

Im wondering what all these tall stories are actually trying to cover for or are they all just trying to stick the boot in while there's a chance?
