[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, because the significant majority of all prior Popes died before they reached the age he is now. That's why it hasn't happened in centuries. You realize that the three Popes who were older than Ratzinger is now died in 1878, 1730 and 1670. [b]So it's been more than 230 years[/b] since there was even a Pope that is older than Benedict. How many people do you know that are 86 years old and still working in a very high stress, full-time (e.g. 7x24) job. Why can't the man retire and let a younger man with better stamina handle the job? He's more than done his duty. ...[/quote] 1878 was 135 years ago, no?[/quote] Why did the man become pope? It's not like the math suddenly became obvious.[/quote]
