Nice article on calls from within the Catholic church for the Pope to resign:
http://www.bild.de/BILD/news/bild-en...ilitation.html
Here's a few excerpts:
Theologian Hermann Haering went so far as to say that the Pope should resign: “If the Pope wants to do something good for the church, he should step down.”
But Vatican spokesman, Reverend Federico Lombardi, told AP that the Pope’s “absolutely indefensible” decision to reinstate Williamson did not reflect the Vatican’s views: “They are his personal ideas ... that we certainly don't share”
