A series of celebrations marking the centenary of the birth of Pope Benedict XVI will take place across four continents beginning on April 16, 2027.
An international committee for the centenary celebrations established by the Joseph Ratzinger-Benedict XVI Vatican Foundation is coordinating the initiatives, the foundation announced.
“The centenary of Ratzingerʼs birth is an opportunity to fully present his thought and his approach to reality as significant contributions to the current ecclesial and cultural debate,” said Father Roberto Regoli, president of the foundation and of the centenary committee.
“His legacy concerns the interpretation of the Second Vatican Council, the personal experience of Christ, which becomes the key to all branches of theology, and reasonableness as the criterion underlying human reflection on reality,” the priest noted.
Events marking 100 years since the beloved German pontiffʼs birth on April 16, 1927, will take place in several countries in Europe as well as in the U.S., India, Colombia, and Kenya.

@gavinashenden Lebanon was ruined by the influx of radical Islam .
This is ongoing today, resulting in the ongoing bombing of Hezbollah infiltrators, causing great distress to the people of Lebanon , Christians , moderate muslims & atheists alike .

@breeadail @realDonaldTrump I'd like to see / hear this Pope also speak out to Macron & other world leaders 'publicly' about abortion , euthanasia , so called same sex marriage etc , the same way he speaks out rightly about Trump, but he doesn't, giving the appearance that, he's anti-Trump full stop.

@freebird3181 @EWTNews @EdwardPentin Sadly it appears that wars, famine , diseases etc are symptoms of the deeper sins throughout the world .

@bjps63 @EWTNews @EdwardPentin They're also aimed at Israel, Aipac, Russia, and all who make war and turn around saying 'god will bless their nation'. It's like there's a race to the millstones and The Pope is just the one crying out in the night, "iceburg ahead!"

BREAKING:
Speaking to reporters aboard the papal plane to Algeria on Monday, Pope Leo XIV said:
“I think that the people who read will be able to draw their own conclusions: I am not a politician, I have no intention of entering into a debate with him. Rather, let us always seek peace and put an end to wars. I am not afraid of the Trump administration. I speak about the Gospel, I am not a politician. I do not think the message of the Gospel should be abused in the way some people are doing. I will continue to speak out loudly against war, to try to promote peace, multilateral dialogue between states in order to seek the right solution to problems. The message of the Church is the message of the Gospel, blessed are the peacemakers; I do not see my role as that of a politician, I do not want to enter into a debate with him. Too many people are suffering in the world.”

@EmmanuelMacron You’re facilitating the murder of babies up until birth & promoting euthanasia, these are fundamentally opposed to basic Catholic principles 🤷♂️

Très heureux de rencontrer Sa Sainteté le Pape Léon XIV.
Nous portons une même conviction : face aux fractures du monde, l’action pour la paix est un devoir et une exigence. La France œuvrera toujours pour le dialogue, la justice et la fraternité entre les peuples.

I would be shocked if the story about the Nuncio being threatened and scolded at the Pentagon is true. “We can do what we want, get on side or else” just sounds too idiotic. Maybe a discussion (prob. requested by the Nuncio) happened, but the reports of it are surely fiction.

Remember this the next time Chris Hale "confirms" something.

This is the same meeting where the Pentagon threatened Pope Leo XIV and the Catholic Church with references to the Avignon papacy.

NEW: A journalist with The Catholic Herald confirms the Pentagon attack on Pope Leo and the Catholic Church did happen.
What’s now in dispute is which Pentagon official delivered it.

Exclusive Update: I have been told by two sources that it wasn't Elbridge Colby who initiated the sharp attack against Cardinal Christophe Pierre in the January Pentagon session. Multiple U.S. officials were present, and it came from another US Department Representative.

I don't think even the Nazis took this tone with the Catholic Church.
