Former Pope Benedict says in his memoirs that no-one pressured him to resign but alleges that a "gay lobby" in the Vatican had tried to influence decisions, a leading Italian newspaper reported on Friday.
The book, called "The Last Conversations", is the first time in history that a former pope judges his own pontificate after it is over. It is due to be published on Sept. 9...
In the book, Benedict says that he came to know of the presence of a "gay lobby" made up of four or five people who were seeking to influence Vatican decisions. The article says Benedict says he managed to "break up this power group".
Benedict resigned following a turbulent papacy that included the so-call "Vatileaks" case, in which his butler leaked some of his personal letters and other documents that alleged corruption and a power struggle in the Vatican.
Italian media at the time reported that a faction of prelates who wanted to discredit Benedict and pressure him to resign was behind the leaks...

Satan strikes at the weakest point.
What does he mean “tried” I would say they succeeded with “Pope St. Socialist Jesuit the 1st”....
Looks like the gay guys put their man in place with cash support from the International criminal George Soros.
They “Tried to”, or they “Began to”? I say the later.Unfortunately.
The last Catholic Christian pope speaks.
If a power struggle is waged against the champions of normalizing perverts then it’s well worth waging.
With the threat of islam upon any and all good people, the sexual proclivities of humans are way down low on the concern list.
Kill islam and then worry about whom is banging who.
Broke up the group? I missed the excommunications I guess.
We have time for both. Pervert attacking the church are what makes to too weak to fight islam. Gooks in the wire!
Actually, they are not.
An unrepentant and licentious people are not equipped to deal with Islam: they have the same spiritual daddy in Satan.
And they may also fall under divine judgment for turning their backs on The Lord. Indeed, we are seeing a whole lotta Romans 1:18-32 themed action in our so-called “culture”.
This is not necessarily so much a problem in societies that are not as much exposed to the Gospel as ours has been and still is, as Romans deals with those who turn their back to God, not those who don’t know much about Him.
The Freemason (psychopathic, sodomite elite takeover) happened with Vatican II. The cartel (homosexuals-Fr. Oko’s Report on Homoheresy) got control of the Vatican Bank by the 30s-40s....Pope John Paul I “In God’s Name” was only pope for 33 day before he was murdered-—he was going to clean out the corruption in the Vatican Bank—fire people. He was found poisoned—dead.
Then the “good” and 2nd longest-reigning pope in history of Rome—P. John Paul II reigned as all the gay mafia were raping all the little boys and destroying all the parishes and overrunning the seminaries. Even today, Dolan allowed homosexual orgies in NY parishes even though complaints of theft of millions of dollars for the “orgies” which is “fine” with Abp. Dolan tsk tsk-—as is glorifying “pride” in sodomy to little children in the St. Patrick Day parades.
All powerful institutions are infiltrated (and PPX warned of infiltration in Pascendi in 1907. Marxists know how to infiltrate—it is their M.O. Bella Dodd reported to Congress (ex-Communist) how she facilitated thousands of homosexual Marxists into the seminaries in the 30s/40s and she was just ONE of the people feeding the seminaries with Marxists.
“Goodbye, Good Men” is a book about how the homosexuals drove out/punished the “good” moral men in the seminaries-—and destroyed/demoted them. Fr. Oko’s report addresses the fascism with the homomafia as he called them. They literally take over exactly like the homosexual SS Brownshirts did for Hitler.
.......and it is no accident that the Jesuit socialist is now “pope” Oxymoron: socialist Catholic or Marxist Catholic.
Socialism and Marxism is pure dehumanization and is always slavery which destroys Free Will and Individualism (Catholic concepts along with subsidiarity (the Natural Family and autonomy).
Pope Benedict is a coward. he abandoned his flock at the first sign of wolves. he will be judged for allowing the false pope Bergoglio to mislead an untold number of souls to perdition.
Well Benedict, in the USA the homosexual activists do wield great power.
