He fathered children, sold salvation, and ruled through scandal.
In Volume 10 of the Dark Psychology and Manipulation series, explore the jaw-dropping decadence of Pope Innocent VIII—the first pope to publicly acknowledge his illegitimate children and auction off Church offices as if they were market stalls. His papacy turned the Vatican into a dynastic enterprise, accelerating the rot that would ignite the Reformation.
This book reveals:
- How Innocent VIII wielded nepotism as governance—turning spiritual power into family inheritance
- The explosive rise of commercialised indulgences, and how salvation was reduced to coin
- His infamous alliance with the Ottoman Empire—trading Christian unity for gold
- How his bull against witchcraft unleashed centuries of torture, hysteria, and mass executions
