Germany's Ratzinger is Pope Benedict XVI
I've thought that it is only common in Iran to have such population gathering for religious icon's funeral and their conclaves to choose a new figure. Well, I was wrong; it is common in the world among people, old and young, men and women, straight and gays. The only difference is unlike us, their religious people do not hide that they like luxury and power, they do not hide that are rich and they do not care about the rest of the world as long as the Pope or Benedict can have few people around him to hold the book and probably cup of coffee for him. It is painful, this world is insane. These people are insane, but I respect them and I hope the new Pope, Benedict 16th, respect the free lives, free thoughts, abortion, gay marriage and he would generously put more efforts to finish conflicts in Iraq, Israel, Palestine and Afghanistan instead of trusting in our prayers. Dear Pope, congratulations for being elected and I hope the Benedict 16th would solve some issues that perhaps did not exist in nineteen hundreds.
