    A modernist pope?

    I used the word “modernist;”  I think that it was not understood by everybody.  Perhaps I should have said a modernist in his actions.  Once again, he is not a modernist in the absolute, theoretical sense:  a man who develops a whole coherent system;  that coherence does not exist.  There are lines, for example, the evolutionary line, which is precisely connected with action.  When the pope says that he wants a haziness in doctrine, when doubt is introduced, and not just haziness, but doubt, going so far as to say that even the great leaders of the faith, like Moses, allowed room for doubt….  I know of only one doubt of Moses:  the time when he doubted and struck the rock!  Because of that the Good Lord punished him and he was not able to enter the Promised Land.  Well then!  I do not think that this doubt is to Moses’s credit;  the rest of the time he was rather forceful in his assertions… without a doubt.

    It is really surprising, this idea that there must be doubts about everything;  it is very peculiar!  I will not say that this is reminiscent of Descartes, but…  it creates an atmosphere.  And what is really dangerous is that they leave it at that in the newspapers and the media…  He is to some extent the darling of the media, he is well regarded, they praise him, they showcase him, but that does not get to the bottom of the matter.
