La historia oculta del papado de Juan Pablo II A really powerful book that explores the seamier side of John Paul 2's Vatican. Written by the author of In God's Name, the precisely researched book identifies unseemly actions and inactions in many areas. From Vatican finances to the deplorable priest scandal and the Church's incessant efforts to obfuscate and delay legal action, the book points out a pattern of unethical behavior that is both shocking and encyclopedic. The Vatican Bank scandal was better chronicled in the author's previous book. But the tremendous level of detail that he provides to the 2000 years long priest scandal and the Pope's unwillingness to address it shows a bureaucracy that I am certain Christ would find impossible to countenance. It has been said that the goal of any bureaucracy is self perpetuation. Yallop offers up ample evidence that in the case of the church, this appears to be true. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
From the first moment of his papacy Karol Wojtyla sought political influence and a role on the world stage. Promising a renewed church, he was the first media Pope and travelled around the world to preach his message. It is said that he was central in the fall of Soviet Eastern Europe. One year after his death, there are calls for his sainthood. But is this the whole truth? Investigative journalist Yallop explores the myths and half truths of John Paul II's long reign and asks some difficult questions ranging from the role of the Vatican in the momentous events in 1989, and the continued mismanagement of Vatican finance, to the failure to address the child sexual abuse crisis and the rise of Opus Dei. Including revelations from the CIA, the KGB, and the Vatican itself, this is an unflinching look at a man who may soon become a saint.--From publisher description.
