Two Popes

After a bit of time of waiting, finally the time in which both Popes, Pope Francis and former Pope Benedict will finally be in Vatican together again.

After a brief period in a Vatican Summer house for the sake of letting his successor settle in, Pope Benedict returned, flying in by helicopter to live only a few hundred meters away from Francis. Francis was reported to meet his predecessor with "fraternal cordiality".

While some critics believe that Benedict's arrival might affect Francis' current route of reform, I personally believe that that would not happen. Instead, I believe that Benedict's presence might liven up the state of the church which has a very bumpy future ahead. As of now, he will dedicate his time to praying at the Church.
