So long.
We will miss you, Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger. I hope that your retirement is a long and enjoyable one, and that your successor is a true warrior, and not a freak. What I wouldn’t give to see a Julius III.

Amen.
Isn’t the next Pope supposed to be the False Prophet?
I don’t buy into that sort of crap, but you never know!
Okay, question for you Og.
How is the departing Pope supposed to be referred to now?
Benedict XVI or Cardinal Ratzinger?

Pope Emeritus Benedict 16, I think.
The last word on “the street”, was the retiring Pope would be given the title of “Pope Emeritus” (Benedict). He could also continue to be addressed as “Your Holiness”.
Thanks guys…
I would love to be a fly on the wall the day the Pope Emeritus stops by to office to kibbitz….
“Excuse me, Your Holiness?”
[stereo] “Yes my son?” [/stereo]

Nope, a married Black American Pope who isn’t even Catholic will never happen.
