Benedict XVI

The Romans have a new Pope. What this means for my own Church remains to be seen.

JP II and Cardinal Ratzinger were a team, the good cop and the bad cop, when, by all reports, the good cop role would suit Ratzinger's private character better. If he can make the transition from sheepdog to shepherd, my friends on the right will be seriously disappointed.

But let me state for the record that I am personally prejudiced in favor of Bavarians.
