Gloria.TV News on the 20th of September 2013

Yesterday 16 Jesuit journals around the world published a long interview with Pope Francis in a dozen languages including English. The interview took place over the course of three meetings in August. The Pope spoke to Jesuit Father Antonio Spadaro, editor in chief of La Civiltà Cattolica, the Italian Jesuit journal. Spadaro conducted the interview on behalf of his own and several other major Jesuit journals around the world. The editorial teams at each of the journals prepared questions and sent them to Spadaro who met the pope at the Vatican in the Holy Father's apartments in the Casa Santa Marta.

I have never been a right-winger”: In the interview the Pope speaks about his experience as a Jesuit superior: “I did not always make necessary consultations and this was not a good thing.” He became provincial when he was only 36 years old – quote: “That was crazy. I had to deal with difficult situations, and I made my decisions abruptly and by myself.” Or: “My authoritarian and quick manner of making decisions led me to have serious problems and to be accused of being ultraconservative.” But: “I have never been a right-winger.”

About moral theology the Pope says: “We cannot insist only on issues related to abortion, gay marriage and the use of contraceptive methods. This is not possible. I have not spoken much about these things, and I was reprimanded for that. But, when we speak about these issues, we have to talk about them in context. The teaching of the church, for that matter, is clear and I am a son of the church but it is not necessary to talk about these issues all the time.” Interestingly, the Pope did not include pedophilia in this list of sins.

Old Rite: About the Old Rite Pope Francis says: “I think the decision of Pope Benedict to allow a wider use of the Extraordinary Rite was prudent and motivated by the desire to help people who have this sensitivity.” But – quote: “What is worrying, though, is the risk of the ideologisation of the Vetus Ordo, its exploitation.”

When Francis discusses conservatives he gets very strong-worded – quote: “If the Christian is a restorationist, a legalist, if he wants everything clear and safe, then he will find nothing.” Or: “Those who today always look for disciplinarian solutions, those who long for an exaggerated doctrinal ‘security,’ those who stubbornly try to recover a past that no longer exists – they have a static and inward-directed view of things. In this way, faith becomes an ideology among other ideologies.” Later in the interview he says: “The view of the church’s teaching as a monolith to defend without nuance or different understandings is wrong.”

Prayer: “I pray the breviary every morning. I like to pray with the psalms. Then, later, I celebrate Mass. I pray the Rosary. What I really prefer is adoration in the evening, even when I get distracted and think of other things or even fall asleep praying. In the evening then, between seven and eight o’clock, I stay in front of the Blessed Sacrament for an hour in adoration. But I pray mentally even when I am waiting at the dentist or at other times of the day.”

@Glocker : the translation is bad. The Pope said in his language "not a conservative", "not for the status quo".
It has nothing to do with a political party !

Pope says, I've never been a right winger". What was the purpose of such a statement..especially coming from the pope?

Papież mówi, że słaby człowiek jest grzeszny ale ważniejsze jest pokazać mu miłość niż wytykać mu jego słabość.

Divný Tuláku, ale upřímný. Pouští vás všechny na záchranných člunech na rozbouřený

S vámi se nebojím, že by mohl zavládnout totalitní režim a falešné náboženství. Vždy poznáte, když něco není v pořádku a protiřečí to pravé víře. Nenecháte se oklamat. Církev a věřící budou podrobeni zkouškám, nezapomeňte však na to …More

Církev a věřící budou podrobeni zkouškám, nezapomeňte však na to, že církev není Bůh, náboženství není Boží pravda, tak jako ikony nejsou skutečné. Papež již více není zástupcem Boha, ani jeho vyvoleným. Je to nyní na každém z nás; každý jsme před Bohem sám, a sám se před ním budeme vyznávat.
