The New York Times is running a "guess the quote" game:

How Recent Popes Differ on Key Issues

Choose the pope who said each quote on seven critical issues.
where "key issue" means "an issue that gets the NYT editorial board hot and bothered."  (Hint: none are labeled as concerning Manicheanism or Transubstantiation or the Apostolic Succession.)

I failed.

The quotes were too close to call. In many cases I was trying to parse word choice more than the idea. In the case of Judaism BXVI does come across as a bit more conservative than JPII or Pope Francis but I believe that the three sitting in a room together would have little actual disagreement.
