Pope Benedict XVI Discussion Forum

Succeeding Pope John Paul II, Pope Benedict XVI (Joseph Alois Ratzinger) has big shoes to fill. Controversial, opinionated, conservative yet modern, can Benedict XVI lead the Catholic Church as Christ would want? And what does being a Catholic mean?

Secularism has infected our culture and some in our Church. What is our response? What do we hope the Pontiff's response will be?

Sponsored by the editors at the HungarianBookstore.com, this forum is semi-moderated. This means although the discussion is open, we are to be civil, avoid flaming, profanity and other displays that do not honor our Lord and Savior.

We do not presume you are Catholic, Christian, or even that you believe in God. We do presume you will enter into our forum with a spirit of intellectual and spiritual openness.

About the Pope, the Vatican says:
THE HOLY FATHER
The Roman Pontiff, as the successor of Peter,
is the perpetual and visible principle and foundation of unity
of both the bishops and of the faithful. LUMEN GENTIUM, 23


Peace be with you.
