Pope Benedict XVI

A new Pope has been elected by the cardinals. After two disappointing black smoke, the people of Vatican rejoice their new leader. Pope Benedict XVI is a german and somehow at this point all I can think about is about WWII, the Jews and the Germans..and here is a german, to lead the entire community of Christians, a religious head to the millions of followers all around the world, a hope to many and a strength to the others. I read he is a strict defender of Catholic orthodoxy. Now would he appeal for unity among the entire mankind while being strictly orthodox. He has called modern trends Godless, how would he keep faith among his followers when they are bathed in mordern trends and technologies? It is sure going to be quite a task.
