Do they want to repeat the process in another few years?
Why elect a 78 year old pope?

why not?
An older pope has more wisdom and knowledge in the Catholic doctrine than a younger one. Although it is best if he can consult the young generation as they can relate better to the relevant issues of the time.

I'd say elect a younger candidate, it's not like he won't be prepped by a team of holy advisors, similar to a president or prime minister.

Apparently Benedict XVI (Ratzinger) even though a rather conservative history, has supported the idea that Popes retire at 80. This gives the seat to push such a change through the Vatican, and gives them a few years to casually pick and groom the next successor. Ratzinger has actually been doing the day to day job of the Pope for a number of years because of John Paul II's bad health. It's a logical move for the Catholic church to initiate some changes for the future without being to liberal or conservative in the mean time.

The newly elected Pope Benedict XVI, who turned 78 on Saturday, will be expected to maintain John Paul II's deeply conservative line. He has railed against "greed" and "self-sufficiency" within the Roman Catholic Church and rejects any attempt to modernise.
I hope the new pope gets assassinatedLast edited by nofx; 04-19-2005, 06:57 PM.
Often times I wonder why
There's love and hate, theres live or die.
When sickness comes I must decide:
When feelings go, theres suicide.

Did anyone check his background? Good lord it's a bad pick for a pope. He was actually in the Hitler Jugend (Or in english: Hitler Youth) and handled some anti-air gun thing during the war somewhere. http://www.theage.com.au/news/World/...854233152.html
In my opinion that's bad... no matter how old he was at that time.Last edited by DaLord; 04-19-2005, 07:30 PM.Comment

They are always old....The pope that was elected before the most recent John Paul lasted under a month before he kicked it and then they elected john paul. He was considred pretty young when he was elected but was by no means a youngster himself....Just how it is...If they got some youth in there they might actually get some insight and move away from their bullshit views but that'd be too easy now wouldnt it?Comment

perhaps they should do it dali lama style and find a young boy and make him pope?Comment

Dude, your complaining about the new pope being old, because we would have another funeral and re-election too soon? A black pope wouldnt make it a week!

I think it had a lot to do with this Pope Benedict, being the "right-hand" man for the previous Pope. They were very close and shared a lot of same thoughts on a lot of issues. Since everybody loved the previous Pope, the cardinals chose Benedict XVI who was the closest to the previous Pope.Comment
