'Nothing is so powerful in drawing the spirit of a man downwards as the caresses of a woman' - St Augustine 'Soliloquies' In the last 2,000 years the Popes have set the sexual agenda for almost a quarter of the world's population. But while preaching chastity from on high many have practised something altogether more dissolute. The Pope was the most powerful man on earth. He was a man with a direct line to God and there was no one who could tell him he could not sleep with whoever he wanted. There was a female Pope too, this only became apparent when she gave birth in the street. Added to that there have been pornographers, homosexuals, paedophiles, womanisers, perverts and good old-fashioned adulterers who have occupied the Holy See. A new, updated edition of this best-selling title, Sex Lives of the Popes is a humorous expose of papal promiscuity.
