My sister and I were really nervous while waiting for the announcement of the new Pope. We were hoping that the new Pope not be black. We are not racists, but we hoped for a non-black because of the predictions that the next Pope would be black, would serve for only a short time, and would be the last Pope because the world's coming to an end. Silly huh? But I guess, seeing what happens with the world now (the war, the tsunami etc.) are enough for scary predictions to... well... scare us. So when it was announced that Cardinal Ratzinger was the new Pope, my sister and I were relieved.
I like Pope John Paul II more. Hehe. But well, thank God for the new Pope.
God bless Pope Benedict XVI! :)
