Ratzinger Said Gaining Papal Elector Favor
As with all stories coming out of Rome on who may be emerging as the next likely Pope, a healthy skepticism is probably the best attitude one could have. While for some of us, this would be a most acceptable outcome, we must resign ourselves to the fact that our best approach is to continue to pray that the Holy Spirit will overshadow and enlighten the Cardinal electors and that God will bless us with a good and holy man to be our shepherd.
