Maybe it's time to buy a condo in Boca...

because this is ridiculous.
I don't know much about Christianity. I never went to church as a kid, I never got baptized or confirmed or bat mizvah-ed or whatever. My spiritual beliefs are basically that there's some higher something somewhere, and as long as you play nice, try your best and follow the Golden Rule than you'll be okay when you die.
But Pope? Dude? Seriously. It's time to retire. I know that's not a Pope thing to do. I know that it's supposed to be very dramatic: bells ring, they put the coins over your eyes and nominate someone else to be the Pope. You're in it until you go off to talk in person with God, unless you decide to call it off. Maybe you should say, "eh, fuck it." You had a hole put in your throat. I call out sick if my nose is runny, and you're running the world's largest church from a hospital bed talking out of a voice box? How can you offer the world spiritual counsel when you're talking like Ned from South Park?
I guess you're a good Pope. I don't really know what makes a good or a bad Pope. You've been down on wars, which is good. You've got some appreciation for the street. And, as Paris Hilton would say, "That's hot." But maybe you should be more of a celibate grandpa instead of God's highest-up on earth. Get a super condo in Florida. Floridians love the religion, so you'd be welcomed. Put on a hibiscus-print Pope-hat. Get a convertible top put on your PopeMobile. (Holy shit... it is a convertible! Wow! Thanks, Google!) Pop in some Jimmy Buffet, have a fruity drink and give out your advice to people who want it. Stay in when you have aches, pains or breathing problems. God won't mind. You did your best. But you're making me, and a lot of your followers, uncomfortable. It's time to collect your 401(k) and head to Boca.
