Pope Francis Speaks On Death & Retirement


Pope Francis has publicly broached the prospect of his own death for the first time, light-heartedly giving himself "two or three years" but not ruling out retirement before then. The 77-year old pontiff while addressing reporters on a flight back to the Vatican from South Korea, said

"I try to think of my sins, my mistakes, not to become proud. Because I know it will last only a short time. Two or three years and then I'll be off to the Father's house," he said.
