I see this Pope in for no more than another at best. He will be 80 in December and I would not be surprised if he decides to step after that.

Yes, he would do that wouldn’t he? Further mockery of the papacy. Then we would have two “retired popes”.

What a joke.

True.
Pope Benedict stepped down so the path opened up for more modern day popes to retire before they die in office.
Not a bad thing.
