    Habemus Papam

    When I say ‘we’, I don’t mean me specifically, not being Catholic, but you get the idea. Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger has been chosen as the first German Pope in almost 1,000 years, and the oldest in almost 100 years. Who says the church should be looking ‘forward, not back’?

    If you’re expecting some deep and in-depth analysis of what Pope Benedict XVI will do for the church and the world, then you’re clearly not au fait with this site, and should probably browse the archives a bit more. What I will say, though, is that poor Rafael Behr from the Observer spoke a bit too soon earlier today…

    It’s a quiet news day.

    Oopsie. Having said that, it’s probably a good job he was under that impression, because otherwise I’d never have found out about this special flash animated non-profit eleciton message. Watch it and enjoy.
