The rest of the headline:
Benedict, born in 1927 as Joseph Ratzinger, was the first pope to resign from his office in over half a century.

I don't know what to think.....he should never had stepped down, but the inner me says he was forced to step down which means the Catholic pope and hierarchy are corrupt beyond hell....
I'll just say a prayer for our dead Lord to save us all...

Yes there is.
Everyone dies.
Even retired popes.
But it’s rare for a pope to retire.
He talked about it beforehand.

Very much agree. Lavender Mafia, maybe?
RIP, Il Papa.

From the article:
He is most immediately remembered outside the Catholic Church for his surprise resignation — the first papal abdication since 1415 — and subsequent life as the world’s first "pope emeritus" in centuries. Benedict was born Joseph Ratzinger on April 16, 1927, in Bavaria. He came of age in Germany after World War I at the same time the Nazi regime was growing in power.
His Roman Catholic family — harassed and punished by the Nazi Party for their opposition to state policies — shaped his desire to commit to the church.
When he was 5 yrs old, he wanted to become a cardinal because of their bright red raiment.
