As if I wasn’t already depressed enough about Pope Benedict’s abdication, George Weigel makes a point that I hadn’t even considered: “I very much doubt that we will see him for a very long time; we may never see him in public again.”
And now that he’s said it, it makes total sense. When Benedict stepped into the helicopter last week, he was almost certainly saying goodbye to his flock in the literal sense.
