&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;“Pope Benedict, or ‘B-Unit’, as he’s known to absolutely nobody, stated that he is ‘fully aware’ of the gravity of his decision. Well that really brings it home, Andy, because I don’t think the Catholic Church fully acknowledged gravity as a concept until relatively recently. I could be wrong, but even if I am, I’&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;m still less wrong than is ideal.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
