immeasureably different.  the abuse situation would have been handled entirely differently.  supposedly he was on his way to authorizing some forms of birth control.  the mafia might have been a bit of a problem.  he was getting on top of finances..i have read he was brilliant at this.  please everyone read everything you can on him...all sorts of mysterious deaths at that time..not just his..bits of cathedrals falling on people etc.  where are his papers?  what happened at his death?  there were known lies and changing of stories....he was a top notch mountain climber..of course they can die too at a younger age...just everyone please look into this with a skeptical but open mind.
