Although I admit I was less than enthusiastic when the College elected him to the Holy See, he has guided the Church with a soft hand which is not what I expected. I almost expected him to renounce V2 and reinstate a mandatory Tridentine Mass. However, that was just hysteria on my part.

I applaud his clarification on Limbo and his commitment to reach off to the Anglican and Eastern Orthodox Church.

The characterization of him as "Gods rottweiler" was really unfair.
He actually seems pretty shy and humble.
He has a different way of connecting with me than Pope John Paul II.
JP2 connected with my heart. Benedict connects with my mind. I'm not sure if its that way with other people.
