Really wanted a finger gun pointing god, but google image search let me down.

Oh noes!

Why does a pope have to be sooooo old? Is there an age limit like the president?

Why, you thinking of applying?

There were some terrorists that told the italian media that they're going to kill the pope in an year

that was february 2012

maybe he is afraid

By the way

the next pope is the anti-messiah

They need a young guy. The church is too stuck in the past.

Uh-oh. Petrus Romanus incoming, the evil pope who will see the church under fire from all sides and Rome destroyed.

I better visit that colosseum before it happens...

Good Riddance former Hitler Youth ( http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2005/apr/20/catholicism.religion3 ). Bad as he was though I don't think they'll pick anyone better to be the head of the Catholic Cult.

So, he doesn't get to ride the popemobile anymore then?


I don't think he got to ride in it as I never saw him leave Vatican City.

The Pope before him travelled all over the world to see his peoples.

begs the question of why. i don't buy the "too old" statement..
 
I don't either.  I think there is either something he didn't want to deal with or he wants a direct hand in picking his successor.  Usually pope's just stick around even if the're too sick to do anything.
