So, his resignation (if it happens) would be historical. Could it be he is being forced to resign?
Traditionally?? the pope was elected until death... (the way I was taught).
I think the article mentioned a pope 700 or so years ago stepped down.
Its still speculation up until the point where he steps down....can't think of a pope who stepped down voluntarily off hand....can anyone?....
I do think he is concerned about his own safety. I am sure he is being pressured into it.
His health has declined quite a bit since last year. Better to leave now instead of being killed in function. Then you wonder about Peter the Roman.
