"Seriously, What type of Wizard of OZ type game is Benedict playing"?

That was my wife's reaction as she listen to Rachel Maddow explain how Benedict 16th will not be POPE YET keep all the glory and title BUT NONE of the responsibility.

Not only that but Benedict's successor will use Benedict's secretary? (MY WIFE's Face and words)


It seems to her more and more that the Vatican is trying to pull the papal robe over everyone's eyes.

NOW my wife grew up in the catholic faith and yes she no longers practices she does respect family members who does BUT she finds this all BULLSHIT.

It seems to her that this is nothing more than an a new way of sweeping the whole mess and screw up of handling the very real problem of NOT dealing with all the pedophile stuff.

Is this real pope going to be the one in charge OR is it just a puppet for the old pope?

1. and don't forget that said secretary will be living with ole ratzi.

2. Working for the "New" Pope during the day and the Old pope at night.... So is he spying on the "New"

Pope?

3. Meet the new Pope. Same as the old Pope.

With my apologies to Pete Townshend.

4. He's hiding out. It's not like they could transfer him to another parish

It's the modus operandi of the great church. When someone's about to go down for a crime, the church moves, covers up, or hides them. The only place he could go is deep into the protection of the Vatican.
