So I read recently that Sun Myung Moon is retiring as leader of the Church.

I wonder how exactly a guy who declared himself to be the Messiah at his Congressional coronation ceremony in 2004 goes into retirement.

I thought the traditional method was martyrdom and or ascension into heaven.
 
when an elder of the Hopi fire clan asked me if I was the Pahana, I retired immediately.
:D
 
Well it takes a lot of work to save the world so I'm sure he'd need some sleep some time.
 
It's not retiring - it's succession planning, while he can still do something about it.
 
L. Ron Hubbard successfully retired by going into hiding, so it is possible.
