I don't know how powerful a message this really is. He mixes criticism of the fascists for persecuting Catholic Action with praise for the "incomporable Minister," Mussolini, for agreeing to leave the Catholic Church alone in 1931.

But there it is. Have a safe and blessed Christmas, everyone.

How "powerful?" This response must echo perfectly the chatter around Jerusalem 2000 or so years ago. "King of the Jews? This guy who preaches love and forgiveness? I dunno how powerful a message that is..."

There truly is nothing new under the sun.

Popes aren't politicians, but that won't keep the press from trying make them say political things, as the NYT demonstrates in this piece.
