Evangelicalism=Gnosticism
Pope Benedict then touched on the lack of unity in the Christian community, which he said “hinders the effective announcement of the Gospel and endangers our credibility.” Evangelizing formerly Christian countries and spreading the Gospel to new places will be “more fruitful if all Christians together announce the truth of the Gospel and Jesus Christ, and give a joint response to the spiritual thirst of our times
Pope=Gnosticism?

The Pope's acceptance of Evangelicalism and the existence of Christians not in the Catholic denomination is a step in the right direction.

Just for the record, the Pope speaks of the second evangelization. The first one being when the Church evangelized all of Europe after the fall of the Roman Empire.
