BIOGRAPHY

````    `        ```    ` 

Witness his first brush with homosexuality as a young seminarian, to the time he ordered his priests to sell their golden chalices and implements of idol worship to build a home for spastic children,  to the times he challenged the ban on contraception, to the times he ordered hospitals to admit partners of homosexuals into intensive care units, to the time he sanctioned the union of two men facing execution for intimacy in Africa, to the time he rose to the defense of the world's first artificially inseminated child when other cardinals had condemned her, to the time he would have broken the chauvinistic backbone of the Church and ordained a woman, to the most prolific message of his ministry:

`

`

Some claim the Great Vatican Bank Scandal had to do with his murder. Others claim the threat he was to the capitalistic tenets upon which the United States had been founded rallied the CIA to action. Others claim his threat to change doctrine that unfairly penalizes the everyday lives of innocent people drove right-wing cardinals in the clandestine deed. Still others whisper his sexual orientation led to his premature demise. 

   ‘The Vatican Murders’ examines each one of these possibilities and reveals the role each of them played in the mysterious death of the youngest pope to die in four hundred years and the part the Polish Pope John Paul II had played in his murder...
