| | Pope Benedict XVI from Our Sunday Visitor |
| | Benedict XV 1914-1922: A peacemaker whose attempts to end war were met with disappointing failure, he is also the pope who canonized Joan of Arc. | | | A second reason he may have chosen the name is to pay homage to St. Benedict, the 6th century monk who was the founder of Western monasticism, thereby indicating that despite the lack of ardor for the Faith in Western Europe, he will continue to preach the Gospel in that part of the world. | | | Finally, Pope Benedict’s birthday, April 16, is the feast day of a famous pilgrim, St. Benedict Joseph Labre. |

| | October 13 THE HISTORY OF THE MASS AND HOLY MOTHER CHURCH: (oct13his.htm) |
| | Born in Treviso, Italy, Pope Blessed Benedict XI was asked to lead the Church out of the political mess his predecessor had thrown her into in his dealings with Philip IV, also known as Philip the Fair. | | | Benedict authored many works on Sacred Scripture and tried to live the Word of God as best he could despite the political climate he had inherited. | | | But the Franciscan Spirituals were still not appeased, quite possibly because of Benedict's close alignment with the Dominicans, three of which he elevated to be princes of the Church. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope Benedict XIII |
| | Seeing on his frequent journeys the condition of the churches in even the poorest parishes, he neglected none and by the promulgation of strict rules, he abolished all known abuses. | | | So with tears, and obeying the command of the general of his order, he allowed himself to be proclaimed pope. | | | This long delay weighed heavily on the soul of Orsini, who commenced a novena of prayers to his patron, St. Philip Neri, that the election of a new pope might be no longer delayed. |

| | PunditGuy: Pope Benedict XVI |
| | Benedict, which comes from the Latin for "blessing," is one of a number of papal names of holy origin such as Clement ("mercy"), Innocent ("hopeful" as well as "innocent") and Pius ("pious"). | | | Benedict XV, who reigned from 1914 to 1922, was a moderate following Pius X, who had implemented a sharp crackdown against doctrinal "modernism." He reigned during World War I and was credited with settling animosity between traditionalists and modernists, and dreamed of reunion with Orthodox Christians. | | | Ratzinger, the first German pope in centuries, emerged onto the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica, where he waved to a wildly cheering crowd of tens of thousands and gave his first blessing. |

| | Pope Benedict XV and Benedict XVI - two Popes of Reconciliation by Marian Horvat @ TraditionInAction.org |
| | I believe Benedict XVI intends to oblige traditionalist Catholics to “reconcile” with Vatican II and the New Mass, to finish with our resistance and incorporate us in the Conciliar Church. | | | Speaking in Clementine Hall of the Apostolic Palace to representatives of the schismatic, heretical and pagan sects, he appealed to believers of all “religions” to become promoters of peace and unity. | | | At the turn of the 20th century, Rampolla was already well-known for championing the errors and spirituality that St. Pius X would term Modernism. |
