[lbo-talk] Rat Man elected top robed celibate

[Steven L. Robinson]

Thanks for the URL. The article compares Ratzinger with the American neoconservatives (i.e., he was once a moderate liberal but because of his reaction to the student movements of the late 1960s became more conservative). I think a comparison with  another Pope is more apt. .Pacelli,the future Pius XII, developed a lifelong, visceral hatred of the left and of Communism as a result of his personal experiences in Munich during the aborted German revolution of 1918/1919  and carried that into his papacy during WWII and thereafter.
