Resign of the Pope

On Monday, February 11, In the Pink Texas Blog was posted a comment titled “Pope Spring Eternal.”   I agree with this comment of Eileen Smith the editor of the liberal blog In the Pink Texas, because the resignation of the Pope Benedict XVI is like a disaster for the believers in the catholic church to the extreme that many of them thinks that those are signs of the end of the world. 

Probably Benedict XVI has a few personal reasons to resign but he should put at front the great responsibility that he has. He was the leader; the head of the biggest religion in the whole world.

Many catholic people still do not come out of their surprise moreover some of them decide do not believe because they do not want to trust in the church.  The Bible teaches about “love your neighbor as yourself” the things happen in Rome are far away from that teaching.

The Catholic Church is now without a leader and they feel insecure, they feel like a sheep without a pastor is time that they will open their eyes and start exercising their faith and hope that the sacrifice of Jesus in the Cross was not in vain.  

In my personal opinion the Catholic Church needs to reform certain points of their organization.  Probably being more open to the election of Pope giving more opportunity to young candidates also not tolerating the ones who committed abuses with children, which is one of the main problems and scandals of the church.
