... asbestos bodystockings are looking better by the minute.
Though at least I have read of several top Vatican officials trying to reassure the nervous Rest of the World (tm) that Ratzinger's papal conduct won't reflect the hardline views of his cardinalship when it comes to dealing with other faiths (esp. Judaism, but also "indigenous spiritualities"). True? Who knows... Enough? Certainly not. Still, I'm choosing to believe that the faintest glimmer of hope on one issue is better than no faint glimmer at all, all things -- and our lack of say -- considered.
*sigh* Against all evidence and experience, I have to admit... I didn't expect the Inquisition.
