FIRST POPE IN 600 YEARS TO RESIGN - POOR HEALTH A FACTOR

STATISTICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE MATRIX. At best, the section of the matrix with the white background seems predictive that a pope would resign this year. As per my standard protocol, no statistical significance is assigned to the axis term, here POPE at its 6th lowest skip in Torah. The most significant a-priori term is RESIGNATION. Before downgrade for the rank 6 of the axis term, there was about 1 chance in 412 that it would be at a special case skip on the smaller (white background) matrix. This drops to 1 chance in 250 for the full matrix. None of the other terms were at a special case skip, so they could only be evaluated via Roffman Skip Formula and Skip Tables. On the smaller matrix the year of the resignation (5773/2013) appeared against odds of about 6.75 to 1. EDOM was virtually certain to there. It essentially added no real value. Ditto for HOMO. After downgrade for ELS rank 6 of the axis term, the smaller matrix appeared against odds of about 477 to 1. On the larger matrix the word SICK (one of two synonyms checked for it) added no real value (which means that its presence here does not necessarily support health as a reason for resignation). Only VATICAN was of interest, appearing against odds of about 6.77 to 1. The final value of the full matrix was that it appeared against odds of about 686 to 1.

A PERSONAL NOTE ABOUT THIS POPE. John Moody, Executive Vice President, Executive Editor at Fox News and a former Vatican correspondent and Rome bureau chief for Time magazine wrote of Pope Benedict XVI that “he never had a chance.” He goes on to say that,

“Benedict faced nearly impossible odds, even before he was elected. Joseph Ratzinger -- his given name -- was already white-haired and stooped when he became pope. He was a German of the World War II generation, and as a boy had served, involuntarily, as a member of the Hitler Youth. His last job in Rome as Cardinal Ratzinger was to head the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith – the branch of the Vatican charged with enforcing dogma and rooting out dissent. For that, he was dubbed The Chief Inquisitor and The Rottweiler.”

“On his first visit to the U.S. as pope, Benedict offered contrite apologies for the Church’s ham-handed treatment of the U.S. church’s sex scandal involving its priests. Even the pope’s humble mien did not satisfy some, who pronounced him cold and unfeeling toward the plight of victims of clergy abuse.”

Frankly, any man that homosexually rapes a boy should not expect to get off withjust  a contrite apology, or transfer to another church. Such men should at the least be castrated. The death sentence also does not seem out of line. Instead, Catholicism has allowed itself to become the home of the perverts, the champion of help of Nazi war criminals. The name Ratzinger, especially for a German who wore the swastika in World War 2, all too quickly conjures up images of the Ratlines used by the Vatican to help Nazis escape prosecution. This pope was not a man of God. Rather, he was a man of Hitler who chose to serve him rather than resist him, as we would expect a man chosen to be pope to do.
