New Pope decided - it`s the German Ratzinger
Apparently he is a bit of a hardliner, who is in no way up for modernising the church. That`ll do Africa & South America the world of good...
Will be known as Benedict XVI, but apparently has the nickname of `God`s Rottweiler` :o
Cheers

Obviously going for a short term Pope as he is 78 - only 6 years younger than his predecessor. I was hoping for the new Pope to choose the name John Paul George, opening the door for a Beatles reunion in the Vatican!

yep he`s a hardliner alright and just a caretaker by the looks of it and the age of it! Apparantely they didn`t want some young (under 70?!) upstart coming along.
Benedict eggs? hard boiled? yeah lame......

He is a bit of a shifty looking f***er.
