As Vatican leader Pope Benedict never had a chance | Fox News: "His last job in Rome as Cardinal Ratzinger was to head the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith – the branch of the Vatican charged with enforcing dogma and rooting out dissent. For that, he was dubbed The Chief Inquisitor and The Rottweiler. His idea of a wild night was a single glass of Riesling and an hour of playing his piano – he was an accomplished interpreter of Beethoven and Mozart."

Is voluntarily resigning the papacy the move of a Chief Inquisitor. A Rottweiler? It's possible Benedict the XVI changed in the papacy, or changed with age. Or it's possible that this characterization of Benedict was not accurate from the beginning.
