I'll bet there's some skeletons in his closet about to come out.

He would not be the first servant of The Lord to question/lost Faith if that was the issue. If so, good for him to recognize that he should step down from a leadership role.

Regardless of his reasons, I never felt his heart was truly dedicated to his position and I hope that whomever they find to become his replacement has the vision to lead the Catholic Church in the direction to suit their followers.

He is 85 years old, and he seems to be having health problems.

Maybe they'll plug someone in who's a little more in touch with 2013's issues and concerns, yet still uphold the tradition's of the Catholic Church.

Let's hope.

Not every 70 year old is a fossil, but I understand your point.

These remarks are just plain stupid and imature as far as I am concerned. If the Pope feels he can not do his job as it should be done then I believe he is doing the right thing by stepping down.
