ARGH!!! I really hope you're wrong about this. My hope and prayer is for a Pope from one of the African nations or from a Hispanic/Spanish-Speaking country. It's time...

I wasn't a fan of his from the get-go either. (HUGE JPII fan here) I am, however, warming up to the idea that he's trying to be more forward-thinking than the past.

I'm just annoyed by the fact that he came in, changed all the Mass prayers and then resigned...

PS - I meant to put that smiley after my last line...not as the subject line. I'm serious about my first two lines...

I'm never going to remember "and with your spirit."

Similar to what other people have said, I've never been a fan, but this is probably the best choice. I'm excited to see what happens though. It would be interesting if there was an American Pope, but I'm not going to hold my breath.
