Archbishop Scola sneaking up the running, now neck and neck with Cardinal Turkson at 4/1. Cardinal Ouellet showing strongly at 7/2.
It's just too close to call right now, and still anybody's race as the clerics show off their paces around the parade ring...

So, he's re-signing with Vatican City for another season, hoping they can take the premiership from Vatican United?

Re: Pope To Resign?
My joke about the Pope playing for the Cardinals got an attempted scold on another forum. "Please stop insulting all Catholics!" "Fuck you, I never did that." He got huffy, then got sulky when I pointed out that any Catholic who supports the church is supporting a network of pedophiles and facilitators. Too fuckin' bad.

Re: Pope To Resign?
Now will there be TWO Popes? Rome in turmoil over claim Benedict will stay on to 'advise' his successor and live in nunnery just yards from St Peter's
Benedict XVI’s shock resignation was last night threatening to throw the Roman Catholic Church into turmoil at the suggestion there could be ‘two Popes’ living side by side in Rome.
The unprecedented scenario became apparent as the Vatican was gripped by confusion over what name and title Benedict will have when he retires.
There was also deep concern over what role he may play after he has stepped down and his successor assumes authority over the Roman Catholic flock.

The Emperor doesn't simply step down and give up his power. And for a frail old man he's canny enough to live out his last days in a nunnery, that'll take a few years off.

I do like that he gets to live in a nunnery afterwards. Perhaps that's reason enough to resign... OK, ok, a former nunnery, but hey, he'll surely need some staff...
