From the Interview during the Flight to Cameroon on March 17, 2009; and 4) Benedict XVI: Curriculum Vitae and a Brief Chronicle of the Pontificate. "What caused the clergy sexual abuse crisis? Was there a "cover-up"? How did you feel when you were elected pope? Have you considered resigning? Can the Pope really speak for Jesus Christ? Which films does the Pope like? What do you think about the global climate crisis? Can there be a genuine dialogue with Islam? Should the Church rethink her teaching on priestly celibacy, women priests, contraception, and same-sex relationships? What is the "dictatorship of relativism"? How should we understand Vatican II? And should there be a Vatican III"? Is Christianity the only truth? In this book Pope Benedict candidly and directly answers these and other questions from veteran journalist Peter Seewald. This is no stern sermon or ponderous theological tract, but a lively, fast-paced, challenging, and at times entertaining exchange. Never has a pope, in a book-length interview, dealt so directly with such wide-ranging and controversial issues as Pope Benedict XVI does in Light of the World." - from the rear outer jacket. "Popes do not usually grant book-length interviews to journalists. And never before has a pope given as in-depth and extensive an interview as this one, answering so many direct questions on so many personal and controversial topics. Five years after his election, Pope Benedict XVI openly discusses the criticisms of his pontificate, the crisis in the Church brought on by the clergy sexual abuse scandal, the need for Church reform, the problems of uniting faith and reason today, as well as contemporary issues such as abortion, climate change, same-sex unions, the global economic crisis, and the new atheism. He also examines the quest for unity among Chrisitians , the relations with Islam, the message of Fatima, and the prospects for peace. An unabashed follower of Jesus Christ, Benedict addresses the Church's drive for a new evangelization and the challenges it involves. Twice before the authors held a wide-ranging conversation, which became the best-selling books Salt of the Earth and God and the World. At that time, Seewald's discussion partner was Joseph Ratzinger, head of the Vatican's chief doctrinal office. Now, he is Pope Benedict XVI, leader of the Catholic Church and a man whom many regard as the moral compass for our age. Seewald's respect for Benedict is evident, but the journalist does not let that stop him from posing some of the thorniest, most challenging questions any pope has had to answer. As believers and unbelievers alike read this book, many will be challenged to reconsider what they think they know about Pope Benedict XVI and the future of the Catholic Church." - from the inner front jacket flap .
