yes ma'am, basine said, except that he was appalled by the student revolts dollies. i burst into his lectures read reading parties of course they also burst into my lectures. all is and i'm he was a more sensitive tie. up this week i would defend the microphone with my hands while he would just stand there shocked by the secret which is the reason i believe that had followed the call to reagan's work the little things work on going on that on the one hand, naturally regensburg was in bavaria eddings for a got what was more conservative, quieter. that was his brother was there law. so as the cathedral choir that it was a different world year. we've always been in the vanguard of theology. and at that stage, he took a step back, closing the top to repeat itself. but it was not use if writing who was changing. it was the times ah, and the renewal of the church he had so yearned for suddenly looked out of control . the, the moderate reform that wrought sing i believed and became
5:31 pm
a revolution in his eyes. and after the vatican council rode and asked him quite yet so heavily, he felt that with the students protested the marxist rebellions and so on. come, what things had spiraled out of control. what the d for and the will not be. the change was too fast and it went too far. and element cancellation, got polish. it became necessary to reassert traditional markers of catholic identity with identity. ah, he got his chance in 1977. pope paul the 6th who had known and valued joseph crossing her since the days of the vatican council made him archbishop of munich and freezing. right singer switched from studying to preaching. now he was part of the hierarchy. in his inaugural speech, he explained what the office of bishop meant to him. yeah, handle missed him. i can and nom de, act not in his own name. he is a trustee of another of jesus christ. and his church is, he's not a manager,
5:32 pm
a boss who can do what he wishes, not. he is tasked by him, whom he represents fit in and to wait and see cannot change his opinion. it will be sentimental defending this one time and that another timeliness. and just because he considers an opportune get out a grin stick. nor is he there to spread his own ideas sanity back in rather he is, an envoy. sondra must deliver a message that is bigger than he's also. derosa is us here, hence years of rotting or was tasked with spreading the word when he would much rather have remained a scholar. is my this my fate was similar to that of saint augustine, whom i revere very much minister. he too would have preferred to be a professor, but he was suddenly consecrated appraised. and he cried at his own consecration.
5:33 pm
there are no reports of tears, but his time in munich was short after just 3 years, the new pope john paul, the 2nd called yoseph writing to rome, where he appointed him prefect of the congregation of the doctrine of the faith once entitled the inquisition. it's john was to defend church teachings and combat heresy. the pup said the mason aches shone and if i recall correctly, the pope called me 1st in 1980 or was it 979? 79 and voice and he said he wanted to put me in charge of the congregation for study, which was responsible for problems at universities and so forth. i said to him that i considered my episcopate to be a vow of loyalty, that i could not just run away after 2 years. does have it and he accepted that and said, but i'll probably get back to you again. it's eric coleman. and so it came to be
5:34 pm
one year later, the pope appointed him to the highest office of the doctrine of the faith, kept an awful, i laid down one basic condition which i thought could not be fulfilled. namely that as a former professor, i would like to continue writing books. i asked whether this could be compatible with such a task that he said, i have to think about that and get some advice. and then one day he said to me that he had sought advice and that there were precedents and that it was no problem. so eventually i had to give in and accept the appointment, which was very important to him. i'm name and him say i'm hats. but why him of all people use the fraud to hear from michael on in what made this german theologians so interesting for the polish pope? i think i think that john paul felt free to be creative, had no because he knew he could rely on your civ graziano self but to keep the house in order so to speak, so to speak. and so the erstwhile reformer ratner became the guardian of the faith
5:35 pm
. the head of the most feared authority in the vatican. ah, the files and band bookstore here go back to the counter reformation in the 16th century. it also houses records of court proceedings against your down of bruno and galileo. joseph wright senior became famous around the world in this post earning him the nickname, the punch cardinal, and god's rottweiler been that samson shafts my became one of his sharpest critics because he naturally became a part of the system in rank test. he became increasingly authoritarian. i have to say that they had to ball he had taken over an offer. i should, i could never imagine any one taking over the sanctum officio does the name that had conducted a whole range of inquisitions cylinder. so and hopefully cuz it's who owns, puts this into a few of these included proceedings against professor kuhn himself in 1979 the
5:36 pm
congregation of the doctrine of the faith revoked his license to teach catholic theology back then rosner was not yet prefect of the congregation in san the answer i have got said does not know. thanks peter. god, we've been able to open the archives after careful preparation to health, and we can be pleased that even some non devote historians say the inquisition wasn't such a bad thing. the 2nd is speaking of states, foot alice, it was the head of contemporary judicial systems because it established the chance of conducting a defense, the right to a hearing etceteras for a fetus. one fear that it make no mistake. many verdicts were unjust, much went wrong. but it was an attempt to seek justice and i believe that the opening of the archives as long as people want to listen, will contribute to making this dark chapter, seem a little bit brighter. how much went wrong? this formulation could be construed as minimizing the problem me,
5:37 pm
but did this make use of crossing or someone who would defend the burning of witches and the torture of heretics? as the catholic answer to one coming madera g. hardly. but where did he stand? this as he was a real estate and he knew there would always be a gulf between the ideals of the church and reality. i think he felt at every age faces the challenge of ridging, this gulf of stuff, and that this was an effort he would try to make there were plenty of examples of a gulf between reality and ideals. so how did you, as a flat singer, go about dealing with him? the trick cannot and may not get involved in political struggles to create as just as society as possible. it cannot and may not take the place of the state. these words were penned by years of rotting her they were his answer to liberation,
5:38 pm
theology in latin america, and asia. poor farmers and slum dwellers had formed communities that would read the bible together and take up the battle against poverty. the franciscan monk and professor of theology, leonardo law was a leading proponent, manhattan, and i'm the that's the room. one gets the impression that rome has not fully understood our liberation, theology. and that is a pity for the church. get a hit because the church should take the side of the poor moose and the church must have a liberating annunciation for the poor. if fry, you defer to indigo, few the ottoman hum. dia was aghast. references cannot popped up bluff. i thought an alarm for dear golden's conger they got soon as what did come was i know the ocean gone, said sir, i shuffling. listen to conquer. got soon. voc duty heights. dear capital lucian, deal them in unbelievable fear unscheduled foldable physicians thought the chinook
5:39 pm
of deeds i the dea elements wasting the professor from the slums of brazil spoke after his meeting with the highest guardian of the faith in rome. so next, a mile beneath sophia. first of all, i'm glad to have the whole business behind me. i'm also satisfied be knocked. so freedom because the conversation was caught, an overlapping guy was very good and friendly here. go to friendly, he's on the card. no hardly said a word, you just listen to me in a friendly way. so good. that's fine. but the friendly cardinals. verdict was anything but friendly. the congregation condemned liberation, theology on the grounds of marxist tendencies. laying out a buff was condemned to silence. ah carton, alicio la shader was chairman of the latin american bishops conference for many years long conceived leafy. the allotted for rome cannot imagine what it is
5:40 pm
like to live there you unfold at the beginning. i thought i should well, this liberation, theology. it's no big deal. what does it mean for life? leave it. but now that i've been here for 12 years, i have gradually understood i liberation. theology is the theology for these conditions for this situation. church based charities in germany through their support behind the poor supporting strikes in mines, helping to build new kindergartens. collecting money for comm, pacino's in peru, german involvement was high. ah. hence german christians, for all the more appalled and disappointed by the verdict from rome and the highest guardian of the faith yoseph writing the filth explained that his insistence on a strict division of church and state was partly down to his own german past. crossing his experiences with the nazi regime and the cold war made him highly
5:41 pm
sensitive to worldly promises even from within the church moon . and his experiences under the nazi regime also harden his attitude when it came to another highly divisive issue. abortion in april, 1900. 91 at the consistory of cardinals. writing or condemned assisted suicide liberal abortion laws and even contraception as a culture of death. it was the time when the german catholic church was agonizing over whether to remain a part of state advisory structures for those with unwanted pregnancies which it saw as a way of protecting life. the german bishops, led by bishop carl lehman argued long and hard over the best way forward.
5:42 pm
in 1998 roman made the decision. the catholic church had to drop out of the state advisory service. the german bishops obeyed and then had to explain themselves to this lock in germany. once again, many german catholics were disappointed by their own bishops and joseph writing or supposed be as convinced that there are truths that contained humanity's true happiness. and that no one benefits if this is obscured the fuzzy when its own flawed and get be when it came to questions about issues such as homosexuality, divorce, and birth control. he insisted that the limit of compassion that the women of can is truth. so for writing her, the limit of compassion is truth. but what did this mean for the status of women in
5:43 pm
the catholic church for their demands to be treated equally? oh yes, if writing are stuck to his predecessors, strict rejection of women priests telling the female half of his church that their true calling in life was to serve and be humble. the catholic women's movement was not impressed at deacon's open before she told that work done by the vatican, theology commissions, and bible commissions. over decades, he just swept it off. the table on that fellow even went so far as to publish official statements expecting us faithful to accept as a truth that 2000 years ago, a lot of jesus christ personally determined for the entire institution with that men and women do not merely not enjoy equal rights,
5:44 pm
but that women are inferior to men mysteriously, but reflects, and that therefore they simply cannot be allowed to be ordained as priests. or does he fall into here? i thought to buy until we lessened in despite demands to that effect from large segments of the faithful rights, in your respected senses, vidalia the convictions of the faithful. but to him, the faithful included all believers from the last 2000 years. hence, according to his law, even if many people call for women priests nowadays, they don't represent a majority of you as seen over the centuries. according to his heroic motto, correct story. 30 talkies employees of the true compromise is not really an option for you right there. but what is the truth about joseph rushing me
5:45 pm
god is love you is curry, touch test was the title, the man who became pope benedict gave his 1st and cyclical. he demanded love in truth writing in the 3rd person as if he were afraid that too much love might blur the truths of the faith. his thinking and decision making were guided by 2000 years of catholic tradition. this was the firewall against misguided thoughts and actions, protection from the tyranny of the present. the logical conclusion and highlight of his office as the guardian of the faith was his new world catechism published in 1992. it was a dogmatic summary of what the catholic church has believed for 2000 years. the book of catholic identity now over 70 writing are considered tradition safe and repeatedly asked pope john
5:46 pm
paul to relieve him of his duties as guardian of the faith but even took a different turn. me when pope john paul died, user pricing are held to rick. we a mess with freight warm send a plum. as the pope had grown old, ill and frail, he had repeatedly acted on his behalf, and in 2002 was made dean of the college of cardinals. one of his tasks was to organize the conclave after the pope's death. just before the vote, he warned his colleagues not to let themselves be buffeted by the waves of the tight caste but to hold fast to jesus christ ah, just 4 rounds of voting. joseph,
5:47 pm
right singer was elected pope if $115.00 of his brother cardinals voted for him engine and to lead the catholic church. then he has to believe that this is the will of god. i'm busy, given the challenge that he called the dictatorship of relativism in the western world with its slippery philosophical climate dominated by the idea that everyone has their own version of truth and both are valid. it can be glad to lead singer. this was dangerous scott that he saw does the task of the church in the present day to counter this 6 by declaring an objective truth was almost the uneven, uneasy. so he had to assume that given his career and his reputation and his particular view of the challenges facing the church, the desire of god, one that he was the right man to take on this task.
5:48 pm
his main goal was to secure a catholic teaching for the future and to offer the church guidance and support in the course of globalization. one year after his election foot benedict visited his native bavaria. he gave a speech at reagan's war university where he was once a professor about his favorite topic, faith and reason, and quoted, a medieval argument between a christian emperor and a muslim scholar as act the city. and he says, and i quote, show may just was mohammed brought that was new and there you will find things only evil and in human and in her manish lady such as his commands, i forget her spread by the sword in her faith. he preached just as surely at sephora. ah, the speech sparked violent protests in the muslim world, from symbolic emulations to the actual murders of christians. right. regensburg
5:49 pm
sent off an extraordinary energy on both sides. while of a sudden, a whole range of experts said about trying to improve interface ties for the irony is that what he said? and regensburg brought about a flourishing of the relationship between catholics and muslims. over the subsequent 5 years, christians and muslims. ah, and german pope and the jewish world. in the synagogue alone, pope benedict called for respect and dialogue, ah, the head, may the lord bless his people with peace and may he answer our prayers. but then he approved the reinstatement of the tridentine mess with the aim of re
5:50 pm
integrating catholic traditionalists. puzzle dues. wondered if this meant to revitalization of the good friday prayer for the conversion of jews to christianity, which would be no less than pure provocation for jews. the vatican poured oil on troubled waters clarifying that the old right was no longer permitted on good friday. but then came a new scandal. pope benedict reinstated the traditionalist pious brotherhood, which had been excommunicated from the catholic church in 1988, but benedict wanted them to return to the fold. but just beforehand, bishop williamson, one of the 4 excommunicated bishops, gave a television interview in which he denied that the holocaust ever took place. i don't think we'll get ah,
5:51 pm
the vatican made no mention of this anti semitic stance when it re admitted the pious brothers to the catholic church, sparking global outreach there is, there is some work to be done in the vatican. and before effects of it statements can be gauged and formulated to avoid sparking outcries. so i wish i could tell you that that work had been done around and that the vatican had learned its lesson work has been done, but unfortunately wasn't. i don't think i can say that in 2010, the child sex abuse scandal, which had already sparked headlines elsewhere, reached germany. ah, the contrast was destroyed in the most disgusting fashion. we are appalled by the behavior of church representatives and carers of writing or was already
5:52 pm
familiar with the problem from other countries that beginning in 2001 user processing. i was the only one in the leadership of the church and taking the problem seriously after john paul issued in the proof of this is that carter know, advancing, immediately applied in the us working the rules that cope john paul introduced in 2001 at that time to tackle sex abuse ice the us in 2001 austria in 2004, australia and 2008. ireland in 2009 in germany in 2010 the vulnerable were abused. trust shattered credibility last. the catholic church was in crisis during the final mass that the conclusion of the international year for priest celebrated by $15000.00 men of the cloth. the
5:53 pm
pope made a public apology. my understanding is that he did not see this crisis as a structural one. but as a crisis of spirit, and this spiritual crisis struck a blow to the heart of the theologian and devout believer, it was of writing an ox who b for him, a priest, as jesus christ representative on earth that so many men of god should abuse and disgrace the priestly order in such a manner, and in so many places, hurt him deeply. how, however, inadequate be considered the reaction to the van again, he would all have been far worse without the influence of yours. if glancing both before and after his election to the papacy, use the writing or the guardian of the faith. for him, the crises were the result of a lack of faith. the priests and lay people didn't understand their task. he countered falling membership and demand for more democratic structures with calls
5:54 pm
for greater developments. i am convinced that in 200 years time, benedict papacy will be seen as one of the most educational of the modern age modern era. the tragedy is that user, for i think might have been one of the greatest teachers in the history of the church. one of the great teachers, but unfortunately his classroom is empty because the school house is burning down. oh, what senior demanded of all catholics that they take their faith seriously without trying to subordinate to human needs or worldly challenges. the context maximus saw himself list as a builder of bridges than a servant of the troops. those expecting something else from him were bound to be disappointed. accordingly, reactions to his state and pastoral visit to germany in 2011 were mixed. met at berlin airport with full military honors. joseph pricing found himself
5:55 pm
a guest of state in his native land. he went on to airports where he's celebrated an ecumenical service. the benedict doubled the time scheduled for talk and honored martin luther as exemplary in the struggle for 2 things. but he was unwilling to address joint communion or ecumenical marriage with his protestant brethren. the gal that the christian faith is not based on a balance of advantages and disadvantages. faith honed to one's personal needs, is without value. faith is not something we can imagine and negotiate. a sobering judgment from a protestant point of view. i hope, and it's called the church in germany to free itself from all worldly bonds to make a clear distinction between the demands of the faith and the needs of the world.
5:56 pm
but this clear distinction was lacking in the vatican itself. secret documents went missing from the pope's desk. the thief colo gabriella, the pope's personal butler. this breach of trust deeply hurt grossinger, a man who needed a safe, secure, private life, perhaps more than others. ah . the hunt for the ring leaders lead investigators to the vatican bank, which pope benedict regarded as a secular institution in 2009. he had demanded transparency in line with european standards to prevent future money laundering and bribery scandals. this scandal, which became known as very league, became a crisis for church headquarters because the pope was not willing to spread the cloak of secrecy over everything but not everybody in the vatican was prepared to
5:57 pm
go along with this distinction. then on february 11th 2013 came the big shock. the pope announced his resignation to take effect at the end of the month with no pomp and ceremony. he withdrew 1st to custom. gund also where he made his last public appearance as pope last year. born on 9 weeks later, the 86 year old moved into his place of retirement in the vatican. the monetary lazy benedict and monastery in the vatican garden to the very end. pope benedict the 16th remained true to his principles.
5:59 pm
