I got to thinking today, what are the chances that Ratzinger stole the election? No paper trail (ballots burned), no transparency, no public debate, no exit polls.
I'm just sayin' . . .

5. It's always nice to know that |
|
the uber-trads speak so authoratatively on Traditions.
So did Christ:
"This people honors me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching human precepts as doctrines." You abandon the commandment of God and hold to human tradition.'"

3. I think he's been the Pope for quite awhile |
|
At least for the several months to a year because of Pope John Paul's bad health.
I just don't get the fuss over the election of a religious leader. Except that he takes peoples minds off the crap the right wing is pulling.

4. Assuming that even IS Ratzinger...... |
|
Old guys with white hair look the same in the vestments. Perfect chance for double to take place. Just saying.

8. I read that he has connections to Neil Bush so now I wonder if |
|
Benedict XVI picked that name because he thinks the rapture is soon coming? IMO Bush & crew are all fundie wackos; they shun more progressive Christian denominations and denounce anything that has to do with S E X. They declare culture of lifestyles while killing innocent people in foreign countries. Basically they all have a deathwish and I wonder if this new Pope bought into it.
