Pope-A-Dope
The Pope is on the ropes. His health is failing. He appears fragile and weak. Already there is talk who will replace him and whether he should step aside now and allow for the election of a new Pontiff.
Don't believe the hype.
If there's one thing we know about this Pope, it's that he's a fighter. He fought the Commies in Poland. He's fought against "modern" opinions that consider many of the teachings of the Church archaic. He's a tenacious brawler.
The more he hears advice about stepping aside the more he's likely to say, "Kiss my ring punks." Well, he might not say punks but you get the idea.
This Pope ain't gonna throw in the towel and say "no mas". If he's going out, he's going out with his boots (or Papal slippers) on. He's going to fight to the end and that's one of the things that I admire about the man. May God bless him.
