over catholics -- protestants over catholics. it's not just an old world thing. it's caroled to over into the new world and carried over violently where in new york city new york city, orangemen would march through irish catholic sections of the city kind of rubbing their face in it, and riots ensued. that's an example of how old world resentments carried over, but tweed is representative of the possibilities of american life. most of his followers in politics were, in fact, eye -- irish catholics. tweed realized that he was in this cosmopolitan city, many different ethnic groups. ethnic groups also could vote, and you don't get votes by alienating people or dragging up old battles. so he was, tweed -- though by native anglo perspective was a little more american by virtue of being presbyterian -- nonetheless, kind of opened up to the catholic community, especially the irish catholic community. and we see this in his inner circle, the so-called tweed ring that is associated, again, with this, with this corruption. the next image

what do the catholics have to tell us about death? what is the catholic teaching for us? why do we come to them. >> there's a beautiful document put out by the vatican called declaration on euthanasia. not a great title. it's more uplifting than the title makes it sound. the catholic church has an amazing body of knowledge around death and dying. and catholic social teachings form the principles of what we call end of life care. the declaration on euthanasia goes through various points. very practical points, talking about death, first of all. death is a part of the human condition. it's neither to be feared and avoided at all costs, more is it to be actively procured. so, you know, we know that's part of life. and by looking at some of the principles of catholic teaching, we can see what the best way is to die. what principles are okay. how much medication is allowed. what we should be doing and shouldn't be doing. how to help each other through deaths, spiritual and physical ways. >> you provide practical resources for people to know. your website at the archdiocese, al

but the world catholic youth saw it differently. his 1st big event as pope was world youth day in cologne. where his predecessor had enjoyed a status similar to that of a rock star among young catholics. the scholar use of wrought singer had a different style with one man who knew use of watson here for many years was his biographer. the american vatican correspondent john ellen joseph rotting does not last staff to the spotlight. he is not terribly comfortable there. if he does not enjoy being on the public stage another, it's on the other hand, he was deeply convinced that the catholic church was facing unusually difficult challenges. and he was convinced that he had what it took to cope with these crises . what exactly were these crises and why did washing or believe he was the one chosen to resolve them? ah remarks once wrote that it was man's social existence to determine his consciousness. the search for what formed us if writing or consciousness inevitably leads to his native bavaria. his parents, appropriately enough, were c

that place, which were catholics is so powerful, was so important to him. i am struck by that as i see that the beautifully simple coffin containing his mortal remains, that that was a place as it is for all catholics. >> i remember hearing you saying when you are talking about pope benedict that he was, as you say, a man of great faith, but he was also a man of great reason. he loved the idea of just absorbing information. >> one because of the other. because he was a man of faith, he knew that jesus is the incarnation. he took that very seriously with in, god's mind or reason becomes flesh. if that's the case, anything that is logical, anything that's reasonable, rational, anything scientific, philosophical, any reasonable cultural form, would find a resonance with christ, is related to christ. he saw the paradox that was the more he was a man of faith, the more he was a man of reason. that's part of the great catholic instinct going back to the very beginning. the church fathers are the love talked about the seeds of the world that could be found in the

again, catholic families. catholic queens as a small aside are the only ones who are allowed to wear white at a papal event. so we will probably see them. as well as germany and italy of course are sending official delegations. max, bianca? >> delia, thank you very much indeed. a spectacular scene, isn't it? >> really incredible. especially hearing the chanting and the hubbub as well as seeing the spectacular locations as well. st. peter's basilica being so opulent and gorgeous. gorgeous location. >> let's bring in fred. he's standing by as well. what's the atmosphere like, fred? >> reporter: well, it's been a humbling atmosphere over the past couple of days, max. i was able to get into st. peter's basilica as pope benedict xvith body was still lying in state there. and most of the people who came in there they understood the gravity of this moment, not just of course with a pope emeritus passing away but also what this means for the catholic church. enpope benedict xvi, formerly cardinal ratzinger, was one of

what will be the impact of today on the international catholic community?this is the always way with masses from the vatican because, of course, it's a recognition these masses are broadcast throughout the world and that catholics are from different countries throughout the world so there are always prayers and readings in different languages. in the homily when pope francis spoke a few minutes ago, you'll notice the homily has some real rules to it. it needs to refer to the readings at mass. that's why we didn't hear him necessarily giving a eulogy for pope benedict. it was a reflection on the scriptures but in homage there were excerpts from pope benedict's own reflections from some of the scriptural readings. for pope benedict, the liturgy, the mass was a central part of his work, of catholicism. it strikes me that this mass today we have, yes, a pope who is very conservative being buried, a pope who is more progressive in pope francis, but it really does represent the catholic church under this one umbrella. that's what it's all about. you can have the

catholics have of him. a name that stuck. a nickname that stuck, which was the rottweiler. because of the traditional church doctrine he worked so much about. >> chris, that ridiculous and nasty nickname which you rightly say was used all over the place, was created by his theological enemies. and then picked up by too many in the media. it was a complete character. and let us understand that the job of the pope's not to reinvent the catholic church in his own image and likeness. the pope is the rock around which the church maintains its immunity. he is the defender of the faith if you will. that certainly put joseph roth singer, benedict the 16th as a sign of contradiction in a modern world that is deeply confused about many things. but the essence of this man i think was his concept of priestly service and bringing people to god. he wanted people to be able to fall in love with jesus christ and with god the father. and that is how he understood his role in the world. he was not a great showman. was not a

i knew that i had a call to this, to be a roman catholic woman who's a priest, catholic priest.? i've been in the parish for 30 years. we raised our kids inhe parish. it was the place where we belonged. it was home. but i got pretty convinced pretty early on that the spirit was moving the institution to be more inclusive. i have never been one who could feel any integrity with the institution saying that lgbtq people were intrinsically disordered. that's the reason that i never took a job, a paid job, with the institutional church, even though i had lots of ministry preparation, because i could never say the things that--i couldn't--that i don believe. i've just always been a quesoner. the second largest group of religious people in the country, at least several years ago, was former catholics. so there's something that is not quite right here. different people have been called at different times in the church's history to try something new. that's how i see my vocation. i have always been called in to a particular leadership role in the community. by the time i was in my twenti

would you say that the catholic church manage that, that era? well, i think the benedict managed that very well. there was lots of speculation the time that he was going to be a focus of conservative theology within the church. frances was very clearly from the beginning. somebody who was going to be a reformer and much more forward looking and there was anxiety within the church. the conservative elements within the catholic church would rally around benedict. and this would only exacerbate the tensions within the church, which was as i mentioned already being rocked by scandals of various sorts. we say that they were almost ready to start and we were starting with the literature of the word. so just a quick word on what we can expect next. well, it's going to be, as i said, a more less standard. a catholic mass is going to be a penitential rise, the confession of sin. and at the beginning, everybody acknowledging their own sinfulness and asking for forgiveness that is a normal part of opening of catholic mass. and then there will be the so cal

shrine, which is related to it, it existed for a longer time and was developed exactly as a greek-catholic one, and which was taken away, given the spelling in the 39th year, or the 45th year sooner, and it was handed over to the of the patriarchate and now there is just some kind of stronghold, a stronghold of muscophile sentiments in the middle, well, right in the middle of the edge of galicia, well, that is, it looks amazing , and how much svyatoslav, by the way, the blessed one said about the fact that greek catholics have their own interest, or shall we say, their desire to return to the shrine will they share here from the orthodox church of ukraine, will there not be any disputes between us again? we know that in our history it was often the case that we could not share something among ourselves. yes, this is a very difficult question, in fact it is possible at first and somewhat e- historically speaking, the pochaiv lavra became a part of the russian church a little earlier than the second world war, from the 19th century, that is, the russian empire, that is, in fact, there were s

so they're opposing the westward movement of catholics for instance in catholic immigration. so this is a the high the high point of anti-catholicism in the united states that resulted in 1836 in the burning of the charlestown convent outside of boston convent in school and then in 1844 a series of deadly riots in philadelphia. where the fillet the pennsylvania militia even had to be called out in canon were used to quell the the rioting and the burning the catholic churches and burning the irish catholic neighborhoods there in philadelphia two sets of rights. that's 1844. that's an election year. it's also the year that texas annexation is being considered finally by the united states, texas had been independent for about 10 years and they're not sure they want to be part of the united states, but there's some americans who would like it to be so and some some texians. so that's that's the election year in 1844 in considering texas annexation because the whigs generally seem to oppose it. a democratic journalist wrote an article and coined the term manifest destiny as manife

are there not greek catholics there?ell, it is worth understanding that ukrainians are quite er secular in our society statistics regularly attend services about 10% of the population. that is, of course, it depends on whether it is the west of the country or the east, but if you know how to spread it all over ukraine, it will be 10% in the villages, up to 20%, and in the cities - it is less, that is, these people who come to the greek of a catholic church, let's say in vyshgorod, this does not mean that they were orthodox, became greek catholics there or vice versa, these people very often did not go anywhere, but at some point they may feel a certain religious need or some spiritual need and they are impressed by this church. they are leaving, this does not mean that what is happening is that you know the flow of the faithful that is there. there were millions and they migrate somewhere there, that is, after the communist past, ukrainian society is quite specular, that is, even within the framework of europe, you know,

and you also call the ukrainian catholics.n to appear at the services of the dog. here, on the illumination of the temple in the town of varazh in western ukraine, the epiphany is everywhere followed by xenos vasily plakhotko in a catholic table with a silk ribbon with crosses. i can't do it today. today we can already unite, unite in service in what we can do for the common good of our people. i hope such circumstances will be favorable for everyone , not only for the orthodox, but also for the greek catholics, it has come to the point that epiphany began to wear a western -style shop with headdresses and suggested that christmas be postponed to december 25, as is customary among catholics that is, there was no recommendation. we are independent and independent. and this is our internal question; the schismatics do not hide the fact that, with the support of the presidential office, they are gathering the kiev-pechersk lavra from the believers of the canonical churches to select fully we have registered our legal entity there

one of the many catholic church run go here in congo. catholic church runs about 60 percent of the health care and education services in a country where the government doesn't really provide much of those kinds of services. it's still not one of the reason that the catholic church is so popular and so influential here is where people tend to get an education health care as well. now folks expected to get a message that you asked about the expecting. here is one of peace, but it's normally very diplomatic on these trips. but the lead is the catholic church here in con, guys are really quite outspoken, more so than in most of the african countries. the catholic church is paid have a good role ever since the 1970s in holding congos rulers, to account and campaigning for democracy. and just the recent weeks, the cardinal law of democratic republic of congo been very critical of the government saying that it's abandoned people here in kinshasa, in the east of the country. whether been escalating conflicts in recent years in particular, d. n. 23 widely understood the back by neighboring rwanda.

books are now in their kiev-pechersk lavra, but there is a book on the table about the fact that catholicschismatics, about the fact that the vatican is the enemy of the ukrainian people, and many others such revelations that i don't know where they get them from, well, the point is to say for sure that the catholics also call the schematic orthodox church, they do not have such a term as the orthodox church, it is not translated from latin to english, as far as i remember , although the orthodox or even khasmatists a a but but ms. lyudmila well, i wanted to say that now that the orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate has a rather weak position in ukraine, most people advocate iron and closure or support this idea, there are some the laws that are there as well. well, they have certain certain problems for them. well, for example, if they were called the russian orthodox church in ukraine, wouldn't that be a chance for metropolitan onufriy to show that he is not a person who dances to russian music there? dudu that he is from ukraine, that he is together with other ukrainian denominati

we also have the pochaiv lavra, which was built by the greek-catholic church.vious from my point of view that it should be handed over to the greek-catholic church of ukraine, and it is obvious that the greek-catholic church and the orthodox church have the right to serve in ukrainian shrines because the kyiv church is the mother of the ptzu for the ugcc, and i believe that this will actually happen, but the agreement was concluded on a lease with the uoc, as they say, the uoc, some say the uoc mp, from my point of view, this is the russian orthodox church in ukraine, even more so so it should be said after the decision of the constitutional court , they have some kind of strange indefinite lease there, and this will have to be dealt with by state bodies that could exist in order for ukrainian shrines to become ukrainian. four yes, that is, three registered, one of them is registered mykola knyazhytskyi and one should still be developed by the cabinet of ministers and many sang from different factions first for european solidarity and also from the servant of t

over half of them are catholics.n spite of the continued growth of catholicism across africa this is the first visit by a pope to the drc in almost four decades. a professor from the school of oriental studies joins us. what is at stake for the pope and the drc? >> this is a very important visit by the pope. the first papal visit to congo in 37 years. the pope's message at this big mass in shasta in wednesday will be a rare unifying moment in congo. catholicism is one of the few factors that connects the majority of the congolese population. the stakes are very high here because france -- pope francis has already said he wants to have very difficult talks with the congolese government about the conflict situation in the east. also he will be meeting with bishops and other catholic leaders from across the country about their community level mediation role as well. this potentially is a very important visit but the challenges are enormous given how long-standing the conflict in eastern congo has been. >> the pope seems

it is the section amongst catholic. i think the, the official reason why he was, he stepped on was, you know, for advanced, advanced age and health. but there's, there's, there is an opinion that this, that he stepped on because of the amount of scandals that had marred his rein. whether that's the child abuse scandal, or there's also a banking scandal. and so it was seen that he was stepping back and kind of giving space to a more you know, someone knew someone who could try to lease it, casting you light on the catholic church while he was not isolated. there was a completely isolated and his successor did visit him on somewhat regular basis and you know, there, there, there was still a kind of sympathy to his more conservative opinions among the faithful. right. i mean, it was quite a unique situation, certainly from what and times having to hopes there at the same time, they even made a movie about that. for the past 10 years, they have been to pope's in the magic. and how did that dynamic work for the catholic chur

heads of the ukrainian orthodox church of the ukrainian orthodox church and the ukrainian greek catholic church, and according to your opinion , mr. igor, when can we expect a full-fledged the work of similar commissions, and how will we be ready this year to move to, for example , september, the month that, so to speak, opens the new calendar church year ? and is the optimal period, the church lives outside of time. it lives forever, and if we observe, for example, similar processes that took place in other orthodox churches in the same bulgarian church, then we can see with you what these are period, the bulgarian church, for example, was in such a transition for 20 years at the same time on the feast day and december 25 from january 7, eh. yes, this commission, the commission is already starting to work to agree on all these nuances related to the calendar form. i think we understand that we are not bulgarians we will go through this path much faster, and the joint commission itself will make a decision of the leadership of both the orthodox church of ukraine and the leadership of the

the former head of the roman catholic church, stunned the world when he resigned in 2013. he was a 1st pope to step down in 600 years. but france has called him a noble kind man. was a gift to the church and the world a bundle of us in the late inquest, a momento. at this moment, our thoughts go to our dearest benedict, the 16th, who left us this morning. it is with emotion that we remember this person so noble, so kind of young and we feel in our heart such gratitude, gratitude to god for having gifted him to the church and the world. gratitude to him with all the good he has accomplished. and especially for his witness of faith and prayer, especially in these last years of his retired life is only god knows the value and strength of the intersection of his sacrifices offered the good of the church out there was poor brennan takes a look at the former pope's legacy. benedict the 16th final actors. pope arguably changed the catholic church more than anything else he achieved during his entire atm papacy. on february 28th 2013 benedict became the 1st pope in nearly 600 year

his perception amongst catholics will certainly frankly, catholics, the job of the pope is a job for life. and so when a po benedict former po benedict stepped down almost a decade ago, it did cause a lot of shock within the community. and it has now opened up the possibility for future pope's to resign. it's not completely unprecedented. but the last time that a pope stepped on out of his own volition was around 600 years ago. and in a completely different context, he had that pope had step down to bring it into a civil war, essentially within the church. and so now that possibility is out there at the same time, you know, the, the kind of more conservative values that po benedick stood for continued to be popular among some believers, even after he stepped down, while it did cause shock. and created a very interesting precedent. i would, i think the popularity for some of his ideas within the church, whether that, you know, anti abortion, whether it's a conservative view on same sex marriage. there's still a lot of catholics that subscribe to to that set of values. ok, d, w, specia

but still very sort of in keeping with the traditions of the vatican and the catholic church. there were the official estimates from the vatican is that there were about 75000 people in attendance. saint peter's square, frankly, was not full, as you might have, it might expected if it was a, a sitting coat whose funeral was taking place. but much of this has been unprecedented. i spoke to one nun after the after the funeral, who'd come here of her own volition. she said she'd felt compelled to come here. and she said that she found the m, the funeral ceremony very sought but profoundly beautiful. there was a stillness, a calmness of quiet the, obviously the hymns singing out around the square. and this is, i think, probably exactly what pope marriage has been. is it the 16th had wanted he said he didn't want to sort of fool pomp and ceremony of a normal paypal funeral. the funeral is now over benedict. the 16th will now be in touch in the vault of saint petersburg hillock, or is that right? yeah, that's right, so the wooden casket that was brought out into saint peter's square
