Power and Corruption exposes the rot at the heart of the Vatican and the Roman Catholic Church today. This brilliant and disturbing piece of investigative writing is based on five years authoritative research, including extensive interviews with those in power. It provides a crucial starting point for any Pope wishing to get to the heart of the problems assailing the modern church, to effect far-reaching and revolutionary reform. The book reveals the existence of a gay clique in the Vatican which, Frdric Martel argues, originated as early as the Papacy of Paul VI (19631978). Martel describes the Vatican as the best closet in town and proves that a high number of cardinals are homosexual. Yet these cardinals are among the people making decrees against gay marriage and other issues relating to sexual morality. The most homophobic clergy are invariably themselves gay. The opulent lifestyle of many cardinals is also described in detail. But this book is also about corruption in other clerical spheres: the collusion of church officials with fascist regimes that persecute and torture innocent people; shady property deals; the hypocrisy of protecting paedophile priests; and, above all, the predominant culture of clericalism through which many scandals are ignored or swept away. Power and Corruption is a book that sends a clear message to the Vatican on behalf of all those who long for a Church inspired by the Gospel, a Church for the poor, the marginalised, and the dispossessed.
