I’m praying! At least he named some conservative Cardinals, just like Pope John Paul II did. We will pray and pray and pray.
My thought is, that is EXACTLY why he is “getting out”. So he can have a behind the scenes role on who is going to be the next Pope.
He can watch all of the power plays going on behind the scenes and each group of Cardinals are trying to gather their allegiances.
I put it in God’s hands.
