SOON AND VERY SOON, WE’LL KNOW WHAT POPE LEO XIV THINKS ABOUT THIS, THAT AND THE OTHER—I SUSPECT OR PREDICT THAT WHAT HE THINKS ABOUT THIS, THAT AND THE OTHER WILL BE CLEAR AND CONSCISE WITHOUT SPINNING WHAT HIS HOLINESS SAYS ABOUT THIS, THAT AND THE OTHER—BUT WE’LL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE….

 UPDATE! Immediately after I posted this, I went over to Crux and saw that they have a very extended article on the first interview of Pope Leo XIV as they are responsible for the book-length interview: 

YOU CAN READ THE CRUX INTERVIEW HERE!


Money-byte:

Challenges for the Church and the world

Among the most pressing issues raised were those at the heart of recent Church debates: the sexual abuse crisis, the Synod process, the role of women in Church life, the place of LGBTQ Catholics, and the urgent need for renewed ecumenical and interfaith dialogue.

Press title for the Silirium non possum brief article:


Leo XIV: First Interview in Upcoming Book To be Released in Peru in Spanish first on September 18!

Oh you saw too!

I’m sure the interview won’t give away much. It will be middle of the road, seeking consensus and avoiding anything too controversial yet slightly ambiguous so not to close down options in the future.

Pope Leo XIV will reveal "this and that" via a book-length interview? His Holiness is on board with the manner in which the modern Papacy has operated.

=======

The interview focused upon such topics as synodality, as well as
Pope Leo XIV's wonderful relationship with Pope Francis (requiescat in pace)

I am not sure that the interview will reveal much that is new in regard to those topics. As Pope, as well as then-Cardinal Prevost, His Holiness has heaped praise upon the Synod, as well as Pope Francis.

Pax.

They’ll be praise for Benedict too to appeal to all sides of the church. Quite right too, popes shouldn’t criticise their predecessors in public. Francis was always very careful to speak highly of Benedict.
