Pope Benedict XVI resigns.
Is this allowed? BBC News .I thought they were there for life. What if God resigns? What will we all do then? I know. I'll ask Reg...

Anyone who says >>>I have convoked you to this Consistory>>> instead of I've called a meeting ........ has got to have been up to no good, we will soon learn he was a mate of Jimmy Savile and spent time in his dressing room. :Not me Guv:

Re: Pope Benedict XVI resigns.
Hands up all those that really give a feck wether he comes, stays, or self ignites, , And what difference will it make to the world in general, My view on this is they have got away with all the hype about being a good catholic type person, when really they arnt fit for purpose, Saville was a catholic by the way

Will they let a coloured person have a go at the job, Christians would, (Arch bishop of York springs to mind).

"The Pope said he's resigned because he didn't have the strength to go on. It's Monday. We all feel like that".
David Litchfield figured he knew where the Pope was last night. He tweeted Pope at karaoke last night he was singing.... "That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight losing my religion"
Someone else tweeted: "I think it's nothing more than someone realising that white is not their colour #pope."

Re: Pope Benedict XVI resigns.
From my Belgian friend Karel he has just sent me
The Pope arrives in heaven, where St. Peter awaites him. St. Peter asks who he is.
The Pope: "I am the pope."
St. Peter: "Who? There's no such name in my book."
The Pope: "I'm the representative of God on Earth."
St.Peter: "Does God have a representative? He didn't tell me ..."
The Pope: "But I am the leader of the Catholic Church ..."
St. Peter: "The Catholic church ... Never heard of it ... Wait, I'll check with the boss."
St. Peter walks away through Heaven's Gate to talk with God.
St. Peter: "There's a dude standing outside who claims he's your representative on earth."
God: "I don't have a representative on earth, not that I know of ... Wait, I'll ask Jesus." (yells for Jesus)
Jesus: "Yes father, what's up?"
God and St. Peter explain the situation.
Jesus: "Wait, I'll go outside and have a little chat with that fellow."
Ten minutes pass and Jesus reenters the room laughing out loud. After a few minutes St. Peter asks Jesus why he's laughing.
Jesus: "Remember that fishing club I've started 2000 years ago? It still exists!"

Re: Pope Benedict XVI resigns.
It was neither abuse or discussion. It was JOKE.

We have only picked up other peoples jokes from the internet so our abuse report will hopefully report the whole of the internet too. What a sad person they must be if this is how they get their kicks.

Re: Pope Benedict XVI resigns.
Good riddance to him ( the pope). Several bishops over here tendered their resignations over the part they played in moving paedophile priests from parish to parish, rather than report them to the authorities. Ratsinger refused to accept their resignations. Says all I need to know about the kent.

Re: Pope Benedict XVI resigns.
I know a Catholic bloke bought up in NI and he still is a devout Catholic. He says the treatment he got as a kid before moving to London was horrible. He never says if there was sexual abuse and I don't think there was, but mental and physical was nasty, from priests.
