POPE BENEDICT DIES AT AGE 95.
Pope Benedict XVI dead at 95-By Tamar Lapin and Jesse O’Neill-December 31, 2022 4:51am Updated
Pope
Benedict XVI, a fierce defender of church dogma who became the first
pontiff in six centuries to abdicate the papacy, died Saturday morning.
He was 95 years old.“With sorrow I inform you that the Pope Emeritus,
Benedict XVI, passed away today at 9:34 AM in the Mater Ecclesiae
Monastery in the Vatican,” the Holy See Press Office announced.His death
came after Pope Francis asked his flock for “prayers” for his
predecessor at the Vatican Wednesday.“I want to ask you all for a
special prayer for Pope Emeritus Benedict who sustains the Church in his
silence. He is very sick,” Francis, 86 said during his weekly general
audience.“We ask the Lord to console and sustain him in this witness of
love for the Church to the very end.”The German-born spiritual leader —
born Joseph Ratzinger on 16 April 1927 in Bavaria — succeeded the
sainted Pope John Paul II in 2005.Known for his staunchly conservative
views and the nearly 25 years he spent as the powerful head of the
Vatican’s doctrinal office, Benedict became the first German pope in
1,000 years — but only served for eight years before deciding to step
down in 2013.“I think that if he had been able to decide his own future,
he would have been quite happy to spend his life as a college
professor, teaching and writing books,” the New York Archbishop Timothy
Cardinal Dolan told The Post in December 2018.“But he was called to
greater service… And he accepted all of this as one who follows not his
own will, but God’s will.”As a quiet, unassuming intellectual who mostly
stayed out of the limelight, Benedict didn’t often comment on political
issues, but will be remembered for his extensive writings and teachings
about the love of God and the love of one’s neighbor. Benedict produced
more than 60 books between 1963, when he was a priest, and 2013, when
he resigned.However, his short tenure was marred by the clergy sex abuse
crisis, which reached a peak in the public sphere during this time, and
the “Vati-leaks” scandal.Paolo Gabriele, Benedict’s butler, leaked
secret documents to an Italian journalist in 2012 that revealed
corruption and feuding within the Vatican.The stolen documents uncovered
power struggles inside the Vatican over its efforts to show greater
financial transparency and comply with international norms to fight
money laundering.After Gabriele was arrested, he admitted that he’d
given the papers to reporter Gianluigi Nuzzi because he believed the
pope wasn’t being informed of the “evil and corruption” in the
Vatican.He insisted that he believed exposing it would get the church
back on track.A year after the scandal rocked the Holy See, Benedict, at
the age of 85, stepped down.However, he said he had to step aside
because his health prevented him from being of sound enough mind and
body to lead the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics.“In today’s world,
subject to so many rapid changes and shaken by questions of deep
relevance for the life of faith, in order to govern the bark of St.
Peter and proclaim the gospel, both strength of mind and body are
necessary, “ he said.“Strength which in the last few months has
deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognize my
incapacity to adequately fulfill the ministry entrusted to me.”Everyone,
even the Vatican’s own spokesman, was taken aback by the announcement:
the head of the church was quitting — the first since Pope Gregory XII
in 1415.Years later, Benedict’s stunning decision was lauded by church
leaders and experts as courageous and a sign of true humanity — to be
able to recolonize one’s own failings.“It was really a moment of
humility. He admitted his own weakness and kind of demystified the
papacy,” Christopher P. Vogt, the chair of the Department of Theology
and Religious Studies at St. John’s University told The Post in Dec.
2018.“He didn’t try to hide behind the mystic of the papacy. He was
clearly a man of faith dedicated to serving the church the best way he
could.”Following Benedict’s shock resignation the pope emeritus spent
the last years of his life in near seclusion at a Vatican City
monastery, blind in his left eye and unable to walk unattended.Benedict
had also endured other health setbacks in his life. In 1991, he’s
suffered a hemorrhagic stroke and then suffered another stroke in 2005.
He was also fitted with a pacemaker as a Cardinal, though this was only
revealed following his resignation.A church insider told The Post
Benedict largely spent his days reading, praying, doing a little writing
and occasionally meeting with old friends.He was succeeded by a
charismatic Argentinian Cardinal who became Pope Francis.At the time of
Benedict’s election, he’d been a natural choice within the college of
115 cardinals who chose him, as the man who shared his predecessor John
Paul II’s traditionalist ideology, having served as his right-hand man
for two decades.When he donned his robes on April 19, 2005, at the age
of 78, he became the eldest pontiff to be elected since 1730.Born on
Holy Saturday, April, 16, 1927 in the committed Catholic German village
of Traunstein to a policeman father and hotel cook mother, Benedict was 6
when Adolf Hitler came to power.He was a 12-year-old student about to
enter a seminary when Germany invaded Poland, igniting World War II.In
1941, Benedict was pressed into the compulsory Hitler Youth movement, a
fact that caused widespread criticism upon his ascension to the papacy —
though the future pontiff was “not an enthusiastic” member, wrote his
biographer John Allen.Archbishop Joseph Ratzinger.Joseph Ratzinger was
appointed bishop of Munich in 1977.Bettmann ArchiveLater, Benedict
recalled in his memoirs that during this troublesome time the church was
“a citadel of truth and righteousness against the realm of atheism and
deceit” — a feeling that influenced his choice to join the
priesthood.Both he and his brother Georg, also a priest, joined the
German army and Benedict underwent basic infantry training in late 1944.
He deserted when the country began to be invaded by Allied forces and
ended up in an American POW camp for several weeks.After the war, he
returned home and to the seminary, having been convinced that God
“wanted something from me, something which could only be accomplished by
becoming a priest.” He was ordained in 1951.Soon, Benedict became known
as one of the intellectual stars of the West German church and traveled
to Rome in 1962 to serve as one of the young aides to Joseph Cardinal
Frings of Cologne.During his time in the Vatican, he was known as the
official responsible for reigning in dissident priests — and even earned
the nickname “God’s Rottweiler” — and he began to have second thoughts
about the direction the church was taking.“I found the mood in the
church and among theologians to be agitated,” he wrote. “More and more
there was the impression that nothing stood fast in the church, that
everything was up for revision.”For Benedict — who became associated
with the conservative wing of the church, known for its fierce
opposition to moral “relativism” on issues such as homosexuality,
contraception and women priests — some things weren’t up for debate.The
world was changing and student protests of the late 1960s were
reverberating from Manhattan to Paris to the University of Tuebingen,
where Benedict had a teaching post.“He had big clashes with his most
intimate students and assistants,” Rev. Hans Kung recalled to The Post
in 2005.A short time later, a deeply distraught Benedict moved to the
more conservative University of Regensburg.“I had the feeling that to be
faithful to my faith I must also be in opposition to interpretations of
the faith that are not interpretations but oppositions,” he later
said.Benedict’s warning about the danger of abandoning traditional
church views became familiar in Germany — and took on greater authority
when he moved to Rome and his star began to rise.Benedict was appointed
bishop of Munich in 1977 and elevated to cardinal three months later by
Pope Paul VI.“On the one hand he is a conservative figure, supportive of
traditional family and marriage, sexual mores,” Vogt said. “But at the
same time he’s very progressive, he believes in the rights of labor, the
rights of the poor, having a right to food.”In Italy, Benedict struck
up what would become a 40-year friendship with the archbishop of Krakow,
Karol Cardinal Wojtyla — who was elected John Paul II in 1978.John Paul
named him to head the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith in
1981 as guardian of church dogma, which he served in for nearly 25
years.In that role, he was also charged with investigating and policies
surrounding sexual abuse.In that role, he led important changes to
church law, such as the inclusion of crimes against children related to
the Internet and a case-by-case basis for waving the statute of
limitations.He then became the first Pope to kick predator priests out
of the church — following a series of embarrassing scandals in the US,
Ireland and Australia.In 2011 and 2012, the last two full years of his
papacy, 384 abusive priests were defrocked — though this action only
took place after the anus horriblis of 2010 that saw numerous sexual
abuse cases pop up almost weekly.As pope emeritus, Benedict didn’t
comment on his successors’ policies or any other scandals that arose,
largely keeping to himself.“He has successfully moved out of the
spotlight and not tried to align himself with critics of Francis,” Vogt
said. “He sees this as a time of prayer and reflection.”A report
commissioned by a German archdioceses released in early 2020 found the
former pontiff mishandled four abuse cases when he served as archbishop
in the 1970s and 1980s. Benedict denied wrong doing.It’s still unclear
how Benedict’s shock resignation will affect the future of the church —
but it was no doubt significant.“It has shifted the understanding of
what it means to be in that position, that it is something you can
potentially leave,” Vogt said.Cardinal Dolan believes the effect has
been a “positive one.”“The effect on the Church has been, I think, a
positive one, in that it was such a display of humility; it’s been a
reminder to me that I should not be too attached to the things of this
world,” he said.Dolan, who was appointed Archbishop of New York in 2009
by Benedict described him as a “man of great faith, humble, warm,
gentle, soft spoken.”He was “someone who listened carefully, and was
then able to quickly and accurately summarize and synthesize the various
points of view expressed.”“His legacy will almost certainly be as one
of, if not the, pre-eminent theologians of the 20th and 21st Centuries,”
Dolan said.
