Benedict so far…

Benedict so far… April 17, 2008


(H/T American Digest)

Yes, I said the site would be “wall-to-wall” Benedict for the duration of his visit. I may throw in a video here or there – or something just to refresh myself, but if you’re looking for All Things Benedict, this is where we’re at so far – I’ll be writing more later.

Benedict Gets Big at Nationals Stadium (He seemed Bunyunesque!)

The Pope on the Sex Abuse Issue (A first-look at Benedict’s address to his bishops following Vespers. Includes some personal stuff.)

Benedict’s serious call for seriousness (His brief address at the WH packed a big punch for a little piece.)

US sees a very different pope (Not quite the salivating rottweiller we’d been told to expect.)

This Peter is a lot like Paul (links to Mark Shea’s excellent and insightful piece.)

Benedict is so shy! (Looks at the pontiff’s body language at Andrews AFB.)

“Deeply Ashamed” Benedict and the Priesthood (His remarks en route.)

The press and Benedict (The man and the narrative.)

The Reality of Benedict and Benedict & Islam; a supernatural gambit (a recent piece at Pajamas Media, and one from last year.)

BEST PICTURES: This gallery has awesome pictures of all the proceedings. (H/T to Opinionated Catholic who is doing his own extensive coverage, even about how the pope waves weirdly)

Live EWTN here.

More coming up, meanwhile, don’t forget to look into The Deacon’s Bench, Whispers in the Loggia, Amy Welborn, American Papist and the other great Catholic bloggers I have in my blogroll for additional perspectives and usually much more knowledgeable writing than you can get here.
