VIENNA (AP) - Austrian Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn is one of the favorites for the papacy, but at least one Catholic from his country doesn't think he's qualified: His mom.
Eleonore Schoenborn, who's 92, says her son is much too good-natured to deal with what she calls "the nastiness at the Vatican." She says, "He has enough to do dealing with the intrigues in Vienna."
Schoenborn told the "Kleine Zeitung" newspaper, "He has control of his diocese, but heading a world church is something else."
She says if he does become pope, "I'll never see Christoph again. Because I don't have the strength to go to Rome."
But the paper quotes him telling family members, "I'll surely never become pope."
