It is trickey & difficult BUT there is ONLY ONE TRUE & real answer. EX-POPE Benedict XVI is NOT A POPE. It is like being pregnant. You are either pregnant or you are NOT. Ditto a pope. You are either POPE or you are NOT. Yes, yes, yes, we had had 3 popes in parallel BUT they were NOT all popes. IF Ratzinger wanted a full blown papal funeral he should NOT have abdicated. He is NOT a pope. You can't give him a full, papal funeral. That would be a travesty. As with a conclave there are some elaborate protocols to do with papal funerals including triple caskets, 9 days of official mourning (i.e., Novemdiales) etc. Ratzinger is not entitled to these. He is no longer a pope. He is an ex-pope. He should get a funeral on par with a Cardinal Bishop. Comment Unsubscribe to no longer receive posts from Anura Guruge.
