Pope Benedict XVI To Resign!!! by Slizbeat(m): 12:40pm On Feb 11, 2013
Pope Benedict XVI has announced he will resign February 28, the first pontiff to do so in nearly 600 years.
The decision sets the stage for a conclave to elect a new Pope before the end of March.

The 85-year-old Pope announced his decision in Latin during a meeting of Vatican cardinals Monday morning.
He said that because of his advanced age and diminishing strength, he didn'tfeel he could carry on the job.

"Both strength of mind and body are necessary, strength which in the last few months has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognise my incapacity to adequately fulfil the ministry entrusted to me," he said.
