Pope Benedict XVI has announced he will resign on February 28th, saying he no longer had the strength to fulfill the duties of his office.

So when will the trial begin?

    Well let’s hope he’s happy in his new career: http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/news/celebrity/pope-headhunted-by-satan-2013021159277

    “So when will the trial begin?” — I thought the same thing. There has got to me more to this story.

    He must have done something even the Catholic Church despises. My guess is he shagged an adult woman.

    OR should we insist he carries his papacy to full term?

    Hahaha…”ex-benedict”
    Friend of mine posted this on FB:
    “So, the Pope’s resigned. I did Nazi that coming…”

    I’m guessing he agreed to step down in return for evidence against him being sealed until he’s dead.

    or, more likely, until his beatification

    You know what’s been bugging me? If it really is his strength and health that is forcing him to stop, why doesn’t he just pray for good health?

  11. Desiato on February 12th, 2013 at 18:47:

    Of course he did pray for good health. From his perspective, the fact that his health is failing is a sign that God doesn’t want to keep him in that spot.

    So the Pope has been reading the onion then?
