Benedict
Pope Benedict XVI, born Joseph Ratzinger in 1927, served as pope from 2005 until his resignation in 2013, becoming the first pope in nearly 600 years to step down. A prominent theologian, he was known for his conservative views and efforts to address issues within the Church, including the sexual abuse crisis. His tenure was marked by a focus on tradition and a call for a return to the spiritual roots of Catholicism.
