I strongly agree with you that Pope Benedict is a world class philosopher. And I can see why you appreciate him so much.

Thanks dearest sister in Christ! I've been an admirer of his since the early '90s, when I first became aware of him.

Oh, this is really off-topic in a way, but I wonder if you noticed how "Rosenian" some of Benedict's remarks were in Chapter 5. In particular, his emphasis of "relationality" and the idea of natural causation as involving a hierachical (rather than linear) system of entailments....

I hadn't noticed. But how fascinating! Thank you for your insights, dearest sister in Christ!
