Bloody bandwagoner ... FFS doesn't he realise it's a job for life?

Do the Catholics know how to handle the transition from a living Pope?

How could this happen? ... Could Steve Dank be involved?

I didn't realise it was a job you could retire from! I thought it was once you were Pope, you hold the role until stumps

It amazes me, its 2013 and people still believe in mythical higher powers.

Maybe he saw the light.

I don't know what the big deal is. It would be like finding a new CEO for Disneyland.

I like Leo Shanahans tweet reported on the Today show: Rudd denies canvassing behind the scenes at the Vatican but will be a candidate for new Pope"

Does he have to give 4 weeks notice and, if so, who to?

What sort of Super policy does he have, and who pays the 9%?

Does he relinquish his direct passage to Christ upon his mortal demise?

How would one apply to become Pope, do you have a resume ready to go in anticipation of the incumbent dying?

So many unanswered questions.

a lot of you blokes better not give up your day jobs, as far as i am concerned they need to join the rest of us in the 21st century and appoint someone who is in touch with society and not another 80yr old fart
