What kind of “special relationship” do Pope Benedict XVI and Rory Emerald have? Vatican City will not comment.

Benedict xvi: may the church always be united

A sort of “anarchist utopianism,” as one inspired in the Middle Ages by Joachim of Fiore, crept into Vatican II, but “the wise helmsman of the ship of Christ defended, on the one hand the novelty of the Church and, at the same time, the uniqueness and continuity of the Church, which is always a Church of sinners, and always a place of grace”.”Benedict XVI stated this today, at the general audience…

Pope: “violence does not resolve conflicts!”

Priests: complete adherence to christ and his church

The priestly vocation is a very precious gift from God, especially a world that tends to exclude Him. This is what Benedict XVI recalled in his speech to the 500 participants in a recent congress promoted by the Congregation for the Clergy.There is great need for priests who speak of God to the world and who present the world to God; the Pope said, men not subject to ephemeral cultural fashions, b…

Benedict xvi: it is necessary to return to confession

It is necessary to return to the confessional, noted Benedict XVI, speaking to the participants in the Apostolic Penitentiary’s course of formation. The hedonistic and materialistic cultural context is causing a loss of the sense of sin and of the sense of good and evil. Priests, with the example of the holy Cure d’Ars, must guide the faithful courageously, be dedicated to hearing confessions, and…

Why did the guy who tried to kill Pope John Paul II claim he had help from “inside the Vatican?”?

Why do people blame Atheists for the Pope shooting?

Will pope benedict’s reign mark the end of the vatican?

Benedict’s is the first Pope of the communication age to plunge heavy into politics. The moment an actor takes a political position, either left or right, he immediately polarizes close to half his fan base…it appears this Pope is the first to be stupid enough to fall into this trap.

I was a catholic…but am agnostic now, however, as many people, I still had some modicum of sympathy or loyalty to the church until Bendict. He was the final severance for me…and now i just lie to my older mother when she asks. His political views make him no better than a Mullah and in my view, in this new communication age, he could well end the the church.
