To say that Benedict’s legacy is troublesome just displays the ignorance of the media on Church matters. Cardinal Ratzinger was the driving force who started cracking down on clerical sex abuse cases. May God grant him eternal rest.
i would add that his doctrinal concerns regarding the existence of Truth in a post-truth world are of incomparable import. That there are many 'truths' (i.e. opinions, interpretations) is the condition of relativity that does not exist in the Divine, where Truth is One and all is One.

He is the most godly Pope that I have ever known. There are many things that his eyes could not believe, accept and bear or endure as a true servant of GOD. He was bullied and descrimanated for doing what is right and godly. These made him so sick . His life was threatened many times. He did not see anything except sad face of JESUS. He is a German Pope and, GOD has trusted and blessed him.
Nonsense-this guy Ratzinger,your hero-enabled child abusers to carry on with their terrible behaviour by transferring priests instead of going to the police because he was more concerned with the reputation of the brand rather than safeguarding children making him a total lying hypocrite.
He strategically shaped the minds and hearts of Catholics all around the world for the next 100 years and beyond. An intellectual giant and a substantial philosopher. A dominant influence in Catholic doctrine even after his death.
Agreed. This was because he and John Paul 2 participated in the Second VaticanCouncil. They say things from the inside. And how some things had gone too far.hence both were determined to hold on to orthodoxy. Furthermore they were from Germany and Poland. And both countries were orthodox in the years before and after WW2. JP2 pontificat didnt achieve much in the first few years.but once he brought Cardinal Ratinger to Rome as his right hand man in 1981, since then the pontificate became remarkable.
Poor analysis here by DW Religious Affairs correspondent Gak. Actually, if one really knows the history of Cardinal Ratzinger, one knows that he probably did more than any other elite within the Church to combat the sexual abuse scandal, prior to his pontificate. As for his time as Pope, they were a scant 6 years, a time during which the scandal had grown to such proportions that any man in that office would have been seen as inadequate to the task, let alone an ailing man in his 80s.
Turning a deaf ear to advice is the beginning of delusion. Turning a blind eye to one’s mistakes is the beginning of failure. Always thinking that you should have a fair share of everything is the beginning of affliction.

How anybody can come from spending that much time living with the influence of that dreadful iron curtain with the love if Jesus in his heart is just plain remarkable to me . Kudos to Benedict xvi and John Paul ii .
I am in the peculiar position of once nearly getting arrested for attacking Benedict XVI. I was at the Midnight Mass in the Vatican on Christmas Eve 2009 where, you will remember, an insane woman attacked Benedict XVI in the Basilica. I was sitting in one of the side chapels and did not see what was happening; all we could hear was a loud roar, which I thought at the time was more appropriate to greeting a rock star than the Pope. Well, the Mass was interesting, but I had a bad back at the time, and after a while I decided that I had to leave, still ignorant of what had just happened. When I tried to go, I was questioned by some very antsy guards, who seemed paranoid and really reluctant to let me leave. Finally they found a doctor somewhere who asked me some questions in very slow English. When he pronounced me to be telling the truth, the guards let me go. It was only when we got back to our hotel that I realised what had happened. This was the same trip where I encountered Mariah Carey, and talked to a real live Mafia don in Sicily. Memorable time. RIP Benedict XVI.
Maybe if you had attacked him, you might have saved some children from getting abused? Although he had facilitated the abuse of a great many by the time he became pope.
Each and every one of us can sit/stand here and judge another human being for their failures and sins... it isn't circumstancial that we are told by Christ to remove the BEAM from our eye before we can help remove the splinter in another's. In the end, we all stand before the Judge Himself, regardless of what human's believe or think of each of us
In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit [i.e., as bishop]. Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills [i.e. Rome] will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge[a] will judge his people. The End.
When born again I knew I had to leave the Catholic Church. I get scared to think about where the Popes will end up in eternity. I am happy it's not my judgement. I thank God for my salvation.
Brilliant? In committing moral and real crimes? Allowing child abusers to evade justice and even move to another location to abuse more children! Read Munich report!

@@rjyahin05 Thankfully the remaining 6.5 billion humans couldn't give a rat's a.... !
@@imwelshjesus Look at the news. It’s all over the news sites. From world leaders to simple folks, they care. Humans feel sorry when someone dies. Animals don’t.
RIP
@13:12 looks like prayer doesn’t work
pff who cares
We care. 1.3 billion of us.
Happy New Year everyone!!!
Let's hope that next year will bring DISTRACTION to Wicked Evil Mystery Babylon FOREVER IN ONE HOUR BY, GREAT VIOLENCE.
Heaven and Earth will REJOICE over her DESOLATION.
Rest In Peace 🙏 Your Holiness...
Only a god indifferent to rape of boys would let him rest in peace.
Once upon a time the Pope was the most powerful man in the world. Funny how times change.
Thank god
Yes . The title Vatican Bishop carried more respect 40 years ago than it does now . People have a hard time believing the clergy's love of God is genuine .
Rip pope Benedict
Brought us through the digital age lived through WW2 Germany I respect him even more for resigning.
I live in Belgorod. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are firing rockets at private residential buildings. on the wreckage of the missiles are inscriptions in English, supplied from NATO countries. There are wounded and killed. The absence of mass casualties is a consequence of the excellent work of the Russian air defense system. Why are NATO countries supplying missiles to Ukraine? To kill civilians?
You invaded a peaceful country and you are seeking sympathy. Get a life.
Oh my
Lol 😆
@The Master mind wtf?
God & Jesus & The Church protect his soul ~ Dear Pope Benedict ~ Rest in Heavenly Peace ~ We all love & respect and have faith in you 🤍🕊️⛪
ALL? Maybe I'm the only one then that disagrees
@@Redchilly-s2eNot the only one, I assure you! 😎
Never liked him anyway. Pope Francis instead is awesome.
Francis is a modernist hippie 😊
@@briandelaney9710 yes, love & peace & compassion, not the gold & cover ups & bigotries of the old church
Because he did not support their lgbt, they almost destroyed his legacy with child sexual abuse which has been happening in the Catholic Church for centuries, Thank God he stocked to his conviction by letting it known and stepping down, much respect to him
JOSEPH RATZINGER DANKE SCHON FOR EVERYTHING RIP.
Sad he didn't live to 25,000, would that have been enough??
People die so as not to perceive the inevitable predictable traits that plague humans.
Death prolongs evolution.
Legacy? Illegacy the right word
He died from covid.
He should have died from shame. Sadly that would have required him to ha be a shred of human decency.
Wow. Two popes standing slide by side. Two guys in costume is not that impressive.
Repent of your sins, and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved. Blessings. †
Rest in peace Pope Benedict XVI.
RIP to the king Kiddy Diddler. This was not a good man or human.
🙏🙏😌🙏🙏
💩💩😌💩💩
World bank has an American hopefully it won't be an American but European
Very curious that the retrospective skips the fact that he was a German who survived world war II. How and where was he? how was he influenced?
Hello, You look so adorable. Wow, your beauty speaks in many colors. I'm really interested in getting to know you better. Tommy.
RIP Emperor Palpatine
Wow
why does your site on standby Button on smartphone redirects on Wikipedia site, seems legit
Who is that Benedict ?
His first name was 'Eggs'.....
I'm pretty sure the confusion comes from you trying to use his first and last names, he is much more known for his middle name "Ham".
Moderate pope.
🐍
Him and Francis are not popes
All will off
At least he challenged the status quo inherent in the Catholic system.
Yes, he really challenged the status que by protecting child molesters, being an extreme conservatie hypocrite, being anti women and gay rights!
Think you have the wrong guy unless this is sarcasm
Failure
Yeah, Jesus said “Suffer the little children” and Ratzinger said “Let the little children suffer”.
What? He blessed all those priests lubricant? 🤦
MHSRIP
May
Rip
The only Vicar of Christ has pass away 😢. Bergolio said he is Not the Vicar of Christ... 🤔
In 2023 prepare for trouble 😑
