Product Description

Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (now Pope Benedict XVI) gives a full-length interview to a secular journalist on a host of controversial and difficult issues facing Catholicism and Christianity at the end of the Millennium. Ratzinger responds with candor and insight, giving answers that are often surprising and always thought-provoking on a series of wide-ranging topics regarding the present and future state of Christianity.

Ratzinger begins by discussing his own life, including his family life, seminary studies, being a theology professor and writer, becoming a bishop, cardinal, and the Pope's top authority on doctrine as head of the Congregation of the Doctrine of Faith. He then discusses the problems of the Catholic Church today, answering tough questions about the Church's position on divorce, celibacy, contraception, abortion, women's ordination, ecumenism, etc., and talks about the challenges and hopes of the future of the Church and the world at the beginning of the Third Millenium.
