We don't have a pope!!!

Unfortunately, you generally have to have been ordained already to become pope, so I think you'll have to wait until the next election to get a chance.

On a somewhat bizarre note, my host mom told me today that she thinks His Holiness Benedict XVI: The Pope Eremitus (sorry, I really wanted to use his new official title) has secrets that he wants to pass on to the next pope. I'm not exactly sure if she merely thinks that he is planning on giving the new pope advice or if she thinks he renounced the papacy specifically so that he could make sure his successor hears his "secrets."

I'm confused.

I'm also praying for you!
