That was the sentiment on 60 minutes. Those interviewed and Mr. Safer (sp) discussed if the next Pope would be someone "Young" (30s,40s, 50s). One priest said that since medical technology has advanced that someone 65 or so COULD serve for 20 years or more. Then, there was discussion if the "church" would impose term limits.
I, too am not Catholic, I'm just looking in from the outside.
It's going to be interesting. I vaguely remember the passing of the other Pope, as you have stated in '78. I was 6 years old. I was kind of
that the services were on a Saturday morning. I missed my seeing my Saturday AM shows: cartoons, Fat Albert, and American Bandstand.
