Alright, now who wants to be the first to say that there's no new theology, and no new spirituality, and the pope really isn't talking about just plain old socialism, humanism, and syncretism?

I'll volunteer!

Who's going to be the first to say that he's just being misunderstoooooood?

From reading some of the comments on this thread, I'd say he is by you and others. You're getting worked up about an ecumenical and inter-religious meeting for dialog.

I don't see any "new" theology or spirituality here.

Nope, I don't think he is talking about political socialism, or left-wing defined humanism, or syncretism of the Catholic Faith with other religions.

Then what is he talking about? The Social Reign of Christ the King?

I think not.

"You're getting worked up about an ecumenical and inter-religious meeting for dialog."

That's correct.

"I don't see any "new" theology or spirituality here."

I know. It's really strange that you can't see it.

"Nope, I don't think he is talking about political socialism, or left-wing defined humanism, or syncretism of the Catholic Faith with other religions."

He was.
