———————————-
Click on the orange and white arrow below to hear Pope Benedict XVI today announcing in Latin his intention to resign. He made the announcement at a meeting with cardinals gathered for an ordinary public consistory to approve the canonization of new saints.

The re-use of latin in certain schools should be re-established as it has shown that great decisions and announcements in the catholic church are still made in latin even today. I could partly follow what the Pope was saying to the college of cardinals due to latin lessons i had in secondly school. Actually its a beautiful language to discard. Pope Benedict i love u and i pray 4u that u live alto ano.
