God works in mysterious ways, Maria. It may well be that the College of Cardinals, almost all of whom were called by JPII need to be under someone like Ratzinger, to see if/where/why change is needed.
What I find curious is that Ratzinger was an advisor to Vatican II. I didn't know that before last night. What was reported is that during the student protests of the 60s, he turned more conservative. Do you know any more about that. The news shows have too high of a static to noise ratio, these days.
