I have just read on Yahoo that the Pope has resigned, first one to do this for 600 years, I always thought they held the position until death but obviously this is not the case.

Hi
The last time a Pope retired was 600 years ago. The text of his announcement is on the BBC news website
I guess iur Catholic freinds need our prayers.

I'm sure Pope Benedict was always sincere in his beliefs and actions, and he hasn't had the easiest of times, but I also feel that he has been completely out of touch on so many scores. I just found my self breathing a sigh of relief, at the same time as wishing him the best of good fortune and God's blessing.
Best,
