Until I read all of the garbage comments at the bottom of the blog page, I was taking this seriously.

Looks like nonsense to me.

Pretty sure they took vows to keep the proceedings secret.

This was a talk given as part of the General Congregation, the assembly of all the cardinals BEFORE the conclave began. There was no requirement of secrecy. Bergoglio authorized dissemination of this speech.

But self-referential Church””is not some dramatically new idea—John Paul II certainly was speaking radically to the entire modern project, evangelizing . . .

Applied to the curia, yes, self-referential for sure. Worth criticizing, yes, but utterly new and breathtaking, well, not so much.
