John Paul II was a tough and smart guy. And Benedict XVI was, as far as I can tell, a tough and smart guy. And both held mighty office.

Yet evidently both were unable to make a dent in the church’s homosexual mafia. Is that mafia really that powerful? Or is something else going on here?

Maybe JPI was a warning of what happens when you mess with them.

Maybe they're both gay.

They just were never invited to the parties, is all. So they never really knew about it.

The straight guy who is willing to give up sex and family just doesn’t exist anymore in very large numbers. These days the only type of man who is willing to give up the touch of a woman to live for the rest of their mortal life among a bunch of other men is oftentimes unsurprisingly a closeted gay man.

Both JPII and Benedict XVI were godly men. Maybe JPII was not the best administrator, I don’t know. Benedict XVI worked hard to get rid of bad priests - not just “reassign” them. You must know that both men had the right enemies. Benedict knew he was getting frail and it would take someone younger to finish cleaning house. Well, that didn’t work out too well.
