Also with millions of babies being born in poverty and dying early, the AIDS epidemic reaching terrible numbers in many Catholic countries he still came out against the use of condoms.

Plus the cannonisation of men who built churches using slave labour, as in So Cal.

He was just cool because he flew around the world trying to shore up falling numbers of worshippers. What exactly did he do that was GOOD?
