Cardinal Ratzinger has said that the Roman Catholic Church and the Muslim Community in Europe should come InterCommunion together for European Peace.

Two likely bedfellows :driving:

The present Pope JP11 yesterday called for more opposition to laws he sees as threatening families based on traditional marriage.

In reference to laws in several countries permitting marriage between homosexuals, JP11 said that the family's natual structure was at stake.

This pope wants to take the church back pre-Vatican II. John 23 opened the windows and let in some fresh air. This pope has shut them tight and sealed them with silicone.

Shalom

Ted :-6

Since the next Pope will be one of the Cardinals, are any of them in their 40's? Wouldn't that be something, to have a youthful looking Pope that would look something like George Clooney. Why, the tabloids would go nuts. Just think of all the female converts the church would probably get.

By the time they go through the burial and selection process you could be 40.

Ted :-6And Yes, I can see that happen pre-Vatican 11 days. It might just happen under an Opus Dei run Vatican tomorrow.
