Papa

Non habemus papa. What an unbelievable moment. A pope saying - I cannot continue. (need a break? have enough? not me?) Know too little about Catholicism.  But it is a moment underlying deep cultural decay - most cardinals did not understand the resignation announced in Latin. Nobody understands when I say Hic Rhodus, hic salta.
It is not just the loss of the Latin. But Latin has been taught using classic texts that will probably disappear from the horizon or from the basic cultural luggage...
