More storm clouds over the Vatican. This recent raid by Italian police is a reminder that in God's Bankers - A History of Money and Power at the Vatican, the top theory about why Pope Benedict resigned in 2013 was that he "had been stunned into resigning after the three cardinals he had appointed to investigate Vatileaks gave him what was said to be a jaw-dropping three-hundred-page top secret report exposing in detail a 'gay network' of ranking clerics.
