The pluralism and the diversity of religions......are willed by God in His wisdom......

God's permissive will (what God allows to happen) is being conflated and confused with God's positive will (what God desires for mankind). God is one, the true faith is one and there is one salvation which is eternal. All else is error and God does not will error and lies.

The statement should read "The pluralism and the diversity of religions are....permitted by God....". As with everything which Bergoglio touches, confusion and chaos rule. The statement, as writted, appears to be an endorsement of the heresy of indifferentism in spades.

If this was signed by some secular political figure then fine, flowery feel good platitudes is all the rage.

Pope is to represent/promote/teach the work of Christ. Pluralism was not at the forefront of Christ’s purpose or preaching.

Pope is at war, the days of being “cute” are over considering what his political figureheads are promoting (Abortion, Ireland was a big loss, however, Jorge just smiles at that scenario while doing his “whom am I to judge” jig).

I see nothing different between this and the Vatican 2 document on religious liberty.
