The bible says nobody will know/predict when exactly it's gonna happen.

I hope I'm around to see the world end.

You would think he would have known of this prophecy, being a man in line to be pope and all, so why would he pick that name, and fulfill the prophecy? If you had the choice to closen the Apocalypse, would you do so?

apocalypse, shmapocalypse...i don't think it's going to happen...but hey, you never know.

Science says the end of the world comes when the sun expands and swallows our planet or when the universe collapses back in on itself again.

Don't want to take any risks? Buy Pope Benedict's former vehicle here to ensure an angelic ride of safety:

eh, people have been predicting the end of the world since the begining of the world...
heck, the early Christians hung around waiting for the apocalypse (read the Gospel of Mark for more info). Ah well, if it happens during the next Popes tenure, may it be so, if not...eh

edit: okay, people have been waiting around for the apocolypse..
