Answer and Explanation:
Rephrasing of the quote:

Description of the author:
John Michael Crichton was an author and filmmaker well known for the creation of famous installments such as Jurassic Park and the TV series ER. Even though he had an M.D. from Harvard, Crichton never practiced medicine, focusing instead on writing. He passed away in 2008, at age of 66.

1. Build and take over the 'Papal States' of central Italy giving Popes an actual 'country' to be in charge of.
2. Break the power of and make war on rival 'great families' of Italy using foreign troops/ mercenaries (most of the Renaissance Popes were from rich Italian great families such as the Medici, Farnese, etc. they used their position as Pope to take out rival families such as the Orsini, Colonna etc.).
3.Being rich and used to riches they beautified Rome with art, jewels, gold, fountains, architecture.

To the truly religious the Popes behavior of the times were mostly disgusting. The 'Reformation' and Protestantism (the religious breaking away and starting their own independent Churches) started elsewhere in Europe during the period as a result.
