the main reason is that the last pope had such a long papacy they dont want that to happen again for a while. What happens is that there can't be any reform during an ongoing papacy if the pope is traditionalist, which PJP2 was.
So if you have an old pope, chances are he wont be around for long, so if the church needs to make changes, they wont have to wait too long to make them.

With such a worldwide issue surrounding birth control, and the fact the church is living in the dark ages, saying catholics worldwide shouldnt use condoms, it leads to ever increasing numbers of aids sufferers. If the church truly believes that men and women are going to wait until they get married to have sex, what does that say about them? Do you know any virgins older than 15 these days?

The are directly responsible for massive numbers of deaths caused by aids. Thats orgainsed religion for you. Hypocracy.
