Maybe Pope Benedict grew tired of all the nonsense and sycophancy, which surrounds his office.
In the next days there will be no shortage of bishops, archbishops and experts, who will express the wisdom and correctness of the resignation of Pope Benedict.
Had Pope Benedict made a statement today expressing his decision to stay on as pope, the same bishops and archbishops would most likely be appearing on the media expressing the wisdom and correctness of his decision to stay on as pope.
Is there any significance on the date and time of his resignation, February 28, 20.00?
Peter Seewald's books on Pope Benedict are impressive and inspiring works on the German pope.
On the day of his election, Bild Zeitung ran the headline 'Wir sind Papst'
Guten Rutsch in die Rente.
