Great insight into the now pope.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. great background on how the Pope thinksBy DavidThis book gives much greater insight into who Pope Francis is. It helps provide the necessary context to better understand many of the things he says today. There were many other questions I had hoped would be answered by him in this book but maybe in a future writing. This book is a good start to understanding the foundation for how he sees the world. An intimate and personal glimpse inside the mind of the leader of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis, through his own words...“I believe in the kindness of others, and that I must love them without fear.”—Jorge Bergoglio, Pope Francis Jorge Bergoglio is the first Latin American pope, the first Jesuit pope, and the first to take the name Francis, after Saint Francis of Assisi, the thirteenth-century friar known for his charity and kindness. Here, in a series of extensive interviews conducted over two years, he reveals the very image of a humble priest and inspired teacher. This is a portrait of a man more interested in substance than style. In spontaneous, intimate terms, he talks about his childhood and family life, his first job, the discovery of his calling, and his early days in the seminary. He was a teacher of psychology and literature who befriended writers such as Jorge Luis Borges. He cites Homer and Cervantes with ease, and names Babette’s Feast as a favorite film and Marc Chagall as a favorite painter. He also takes on uncomfortable subjects: the declining number of priests and nuns; celibacy; the scandals that have rocked the Church; and his experience with the military dictatorship of Argentina.Through his own words, this book reveals a man who is thoughtful and witty, learned and introspective—one whose actions and words reflect his deeply rooted humility. Also included in this volume are Pope Francis’s own writings and reflections—full of wisdom and inspiration. About the AuthorFrancesca Ambrogetti was born in Rome.

  • POPE FRANCIS AS a GLOBAL ACTOR Where Politics and Theology Meet
    POPE FRANCIS AS A GLOBAL ACTOR Where Politics and Theology Meet EDITED BY ALYNNA J. LYON, CHRISTINE A. GUSTAFSON, AND PAUL CHRISTOPHER MANUEL Palgrave Studies in Religion, Politics, and Policy Series editor Mark J. Rozell Schar School of Policy and Government George Mason University Arlington, VA, USA A generation ago, many social scientists regarded religion as an anachronism, whose social, economic, and political importance would inevitably wane and disap- pear in the face of the inexorable forces of modernity. Of course, nothing of the sort has occurred; indeed, the public role of religion is resurgent in US domestic politics, in other nations, and in the international arena. Today, religion is widely acknowledged to be a key variable in candidate nominations, platforms, and ­elections; it is recognized as a major influence on domestic and foreign policies. National religious movements as diverse as the Christian Right in the United States and the Taliban in Afghanistan are important factors in the internal politics of par- ticular nations. Moreover, such transnational religious actors as Al-Qaida, Falun Gong, and the Vatican have had important effects on the politics and policies of nations around the world. Palgrave Studies in Religion, Politics, and Policy serves a growing niche in the discipline of political science. This subfield has proliferated rapidly during the past two decades, and has generated an enormous amount of scholarly studies and journalistic coverage. Five years ago, the journal Politics and Religion was created; in addition, works relating to religion and politics have been the subject of many articles in more general academic journals.

  • Il Papa Dittatore
    IL PAPA DITTATORE Marcantonio Colonna Potete ingannare tutti per qualche tempo, o alcuni sempre, ma non potete ingannare tutti per sempre. Abramo Lincoln INDICE Introduzione 1. La Mafia di San Gallo 2. Il Cardinale dall’Argentina 3. Riforma? Quale riforma? Illustrazioni 4. Aprire una nuova (ambigua) strada 5. Misericordia! Misericordia! 6. Cremlino Santa Marta Introduzione Se parlate con i Cattolici di Buenos Aires, essi vi racconteranno della trasformazione miracolosa che si è prodotta in Jorge Mario Bergoglio. Il loro arcivescovo cupo e serio si è trasformato in una notte nel sorridente e allegro Papa Francesco, l’idolo della gente con la quale si è completamente identificato. Se parlate con chi lavora in Vaticano, vi racconteranno del miracolo in senso inverso. Quando le telecamere della televisione non lo inquadrano, Papa Francesco si trasforma in un’altra persona: arrogante, scostante con le persone, volgare nel parlare e famoso per i violenti scoppi d’ira che sono ben conosciuti a tutti, dai cardinali agli autisti. Come lo stesso Papa Francesco ha detto nella sera della sua elezione, i cardinali nel conclave del marzo 2013 sembra che abbiano deciso di andare “ai confini della Terra” per scegliere il loro papa, ma cresce ormai la percezione che non si siano dati granché da fare per controllare la loro merce. Al principio, egli sembrava essere un soffio d’aria fresca, essendo il suo rifiuto delle convenzioni il segno di un uomo che avrebbe messo in atto una riforma audace e radicale nella Chiesa. Nel quinto anno del suo pontificato sta diventando sempre più chiaro che la riforma non sarà fatta.

  • Pope Francis's Strong Thought
    JULY 2014: VOLUME 7, NUMBER 2 • THEOLOGICAL LIBRARIANSHIP Pope Francis’s Strong Thought by Keith Edward Lemna Does a literature review of the most serious writings about or from Pope Francis confirm him to be a champion of “pragmatic” Christianity in the mold of “weak thought”? “Weak thought” (pensiero debole), the invention of the Italian atheist and nihilist Catholic Gianni Vattimo, is the most self-aware and logically consistent form of contemporary, progressive Christian (a-)theology.1 It is, of course, not known to the run of journalists or editorialists in the English- speaking world. Nevertheless, “weak thought” underlies the prospect for the Catholic Church’s future that journalists and media personalities, not to mention many Catholic academicians, thrill to when they assess Pope Francis. “Weak thought” would empty the counsels of the Roman Catholic Church of any claim to divinely given authority, whether to teach, to preach, or to sanctify through the communion of its sacraments. “Weak thinking” by the Catholic bishops, united to the Bishop of Rome, would disclaim definitive interpretation of the Gospel, and for that reason would constitute, on Vattimo’s account, a profoundly Christian configuration to the self-emptying or kenosis of Christ on Calvary, whereby he himself definitively gave up all claims to the prerogatives of divinity. Consequently, “weak thought” should lead the Church to reinterpret its teachings in the arena of marriage, family, “gender,” and life issues. Where the Church’s traditional teaching enters into sharpest conflict with present-day European and North American social norms, there “weak thinking” will resign the “metaphysical violence” of Überwindung — of “overcoming” — in favor of Verwindung — of “tension,” “twisting,” “accommodation,” “healing.” “Weak thought” privatizes religion, moving it away from adherence to authoritative norms or principles and in the direction of social dialogue and edification.

  • Pope Francis's Critique of Globalisation and Neoliberal Capitalism
    Pope Francis’s Call for Social Justice in the Global Economy Bruce Duncan Pope Francis sparked accusations that he is espousing Marxism in his November 2013 exhortation, The Joy of the Gospel, because of his pointed attacks on economic liberalism or neoliberalism, the ideology behind versions of free-market economics.1 The conservative US radio commentator, Rush Limbaugh, with a following of 20 million listeners on a program valued at $400 million, accused the Pope of sprouting ‘pure Marxism’, and of not knowing what he was talking about.2 Pope Francis responded that he was merely articulating church social teaching. ‘The Marxist ideology is wrong. But I have met many Marxists in my life who are good people, so I don’t feel offended.’ He said his critique of ‘trickle down theories’ of economics referred to those that did nothing for the poor.3 On 20 September Francis had said that ‘Jesus emphasises so much that the love of money, in fact, is the root of all evil. “You cannot serve both God and money” ’. This ‘was not communism! This is pure Gospel!’4 Francis is highlighting problems of deep poverty in many countries and vast inequalities in the distribution of wealth. He welcomes the material uplift for millions of people in recent decades, but is strongly critical that millions of others are trapped in grinding poverty. In a time when we have such an abundance of material resources, he is calling for economic initiatives to lift remaining populations out of hunger and extreme poverty. * Within months of being unexpectedly elected Bishop of Rome, Pope Francis has attracted a wide following, and not just among Catholics.

Shep Melnick, Ph.D. This paper analyzes Pope Francis’s view of politics, particularly politics in the United States. Beginning with his speech before a special joint session of Congress on September 24, 2015, this paper explores many of the themes the Pope introduces in this speech, and compares those themes to those in other works he has published since being elected Pontiff in 2013. Then, this paper applies what he has said about contemporary American politics with the analysis of other scholars of American politics. Ultimately, I find that the Pope is very aware of problems in the United States, but hopes to present a positive alternative to address what he identifies as the contemporary world’s ills.

  • Fifty Years After His Ordination, Pope Francis’ Priestly Vocation Is His Favourite Gift
    Fifty years after his ordination, Pope Francis’ priestly vocation is his favourite gift In Caravaggio’s painting of Matthew, the sinful tax collector being called by Jesus to “Follow me,” Pope Francis sees the same unexpected, grace-filled moment found in his own call to the priesthood. A 17-year-old Argentine student headed to a school picnic on Sept. 21, 1953, the feast of St. Matthew, Jorge Bergoglio felt compelled to first stop by his parish of San Jose de Flores. It was there, speaking with a priest he had never seen before and receiving the sacrament of reconciliation, he was suddenly struck by “the loving presence of God,” who, like his episcopal motto describes, saw him through eyes of mercy and chose him, despite his human imperfections and flaws. This gift from a “God of surprises,” a God who offers unexpected, unlimited and unmerited mercy, would change the young man’s life. On Dec. 13 – four days before his 83rd birthday – Pope Francis celebrates 50 years as a priest. It’s a ministry he sees as being a shepherd who walks with his flock and yearns to find those who are lost. The Vatican stamp and coin office released these special stamps to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Pope Francis' Dec. 13, 1969, ordination to the priesthood.Catholic News Service Even though he served as auxiliary bishop, then archbishop of Buenos Aires, Argentina, for more than 20 years, was elevated to the College of Cardinals in 2001 and elected pope in 2013, he has said, “What I love is being a priest,” which is why of all the titles he could have, “I prefer to be called ‘Father.'” So much of what Pope Francis experienced in life and his vocation – with its many ups and downs – influenced what he says today about the priesthood, what it means and what it should be for the Church.

  • Making of Pope Francis
    JNANADEEPA PJRS ISSN 0972-3331 22/1 Jan-June 2018: 11-32 Making of Pope Francis Jacob Naluparayil MCBS Smart Companion, Kochi Abstract: Jorge Mario Bergoglio known as Pope Francis today is a unique gift to God. He stepped in at a moment when the Church was feeling very low with a dwindling self-esteem, fragile and defenseless, her moral authority challenged from within and out. He was chosen by God to guide his Church as a sacrament of God’s mercy and forgiving love and to rejuvenate the Church to be powerful witness of God’s kingdom. A brief life sketch of Pope Francis and an analysis of the events and experiences that molded and formed Pope Francis, a leader of unprecedented courage and qualities would show that this person is gifted to the Church by the Lord to renew the Church and re-awaken its mission to be the light and the salt of the earth. His self-awareness of his weaknesses and strengths, his complete trust in the providential care of the Lord and renewing power of the Spirit, his lived experience of Ignatian spiri- tuality help him to guide the Church through dialogue, discernment and de-centralization. Pope Francis has brought in revolutionary change in Church, attitudes, approach and style in relating with those within the Church as well as outside the Church. In spite of considerable resistance, such attitudinal and stylistic changes have evoked greater confidence, hope and enthusiasm in the ordinary believers and a greater acceptance of Pope’s spiritual and moral leadership by the entire world.
