A decade after he resigned, it is still a mystery as to why Pope Benedict XVI became only the second pope in two thousand years to walk away from the papacy. Benedict himself blamed his health - even though he would live seemingly well for almost another decade.
The real reason appears to be "the wolves" that Benedict himself told us about upon his election to the Chair of Peter:
"Pray for me, that I may not flee for fear of the wolves."
Prior to his election, Benedict was so strong that he was nicknamed "God's Rottweiler." So those "wolves" must have been many and mean, for ultimately Benedict did flee the papacy.
Apparently, as this video demonstrates, Kiko Arguello, one of the founders of the Neocatechumenal Way, was (and is) one of those wolves.
"The only thing that can save us (the NCW) is if the pope (Benedict) dies." - Kiko Arguello
