You cannot refute the veracity of the reports, so you attack the messengers. If you read my blogs as you claim, you would know the information I present is as well documented as my comments. Re: Sodano.  See the numerous articles in NCR by Jason Berry and multiple authors pre-2013 on Sodano's influence with JPII in Latin America. Whether Bergoglio and Sodano got along AFTER Bergoglio climbed to archbishop and cardinal, JPII depended on Sodano for advice on which Latin American priests should be elevated to bishop.
