PB16 and LIFE
Remembering Pope Benedict XVI’s incredible legacy of defending life
With the death of Pope Benedict XVI, the Catholic Church has lost (on earth) one of the greatest pro-life advocates in her history.
A renowned theologian known for fighting relativism and trivialization of the liturgy, Benedict also leaves behind an enormous legacy of promoting life. From his key writings and speeches, political interventions, and interactions with world leaders, he made the cause of life a defining theme of his papacy.

Trad Perspective on PB16
“I’m sorry about Benedict.”
Years ago when I was Eastern Orthodox, I first encountered Joseph Ratzinger in his comments regarding the Eastern schisms and the east-west dialogue. To my mind, these comments showed the amount of erudition necessary to overcome centuries of bad blood and misunderstanding. I was also struck by his criticisms of the Protestant Penal Substitutionary Atonement theory (which Orthodox criticise) and his work for Biblical and Patristic models of atonement.
We can have a reasonable hope that he was welcomed into purgatory.
When an old man is graced with a Catholic death it is a peace because he has left this valley of tears and we hope that he has entered true life.

PB16 and Religious Liberty
Benedict XVI Eloquently Defended Religious Liberty
No pope in history has defended religious freedom with such eloquence and authority as Benedict XVI. His understanding of this complex subject wonderfully clarified the relationship between religion and freedom, as laid out in Vatican II’s declaration on religious freedom, Dignitatis Humanae.
And it is by virtue of the two parts of his teaching on religious liberty — the freedom of the person to believe and worship in accordance with conscience and the freedom of believers to bring their faith into the public square — that the Church can effectively contribute to forming culture and political life.
