(42,239 posts)Pope Benedict XVI has been placed on gardening leave after accepting an unbelievably generous offer to join Islam on a free transfer during the religious transfer window.
In what is believed to be a historic move between the two great traditional rivals, the Pope will take a leading role in his new side as they seek to become the dominant force in world religion.
In a brief statement the Pontiff revealed his thoughts had been turning increasingly towards Mecca and that Islam represented his greatest professional challenge.
The former Cardinal Ratzinger confirmed he would work his four-week notice period minus any holidays he carried forward from last year, but was immediately escorted from his gold throne.
