To clear up the title of this post, yes there have been many sex scandals in the Catholic church and some even involved Ratzinger but oh no, he resigns due to alleged ill health.
Does this mean that god made a mistake with his Earthly ambassador? He guided the big wigs to vote for the wrong dude who wasn't up to the job?
You didn't hear John Paul yapping about ill health and he was all Stephen Hawking towards the end.
I don't care why hes resigning, maybe my e-mails worked after all. As long as the next Pope isn't another Fenian cock sucker.
