Hail Pope Benedict XVI

Well the conclave of Cardinals have elected Joseph Ratzinger as the new pope. He has chosen to be known as Pope Benedict XVI. He's been well known to be a hard-liner and has tried to crack down on the liberals. He's also very concerned about the state the of the faith in Europe, and even wrote a book dealing with this issue. Here's a short biography of the man.

So best of luck of to him and his pontificate. Although I doubt much will change, but you never know.
