VATICAN CITY – From the Gospel to Google, the church has been seeking ways to announce the word of Christ for 2,000 years.
Pope Benedict XVI has gone on YouTube and his speeches appear in Chinese on the Vatican Web site, but judging from the uproar over a Holocaust-denying bishop and his pronouncement that condoms deepen the AIDS crisis, he’s clearly struggling with his message.
During his nearly four-year papacy, criticism has been pouring in from Muslims, Jews and members of his own flock, as the German pontiff seems to step into controversy at every turn. The attacks by European governments this past week over condom use are unprecedented.
The controversy could in the future weigh on cardinals when they choose Benedict’s successor, perhaps leading them to look for a younger man more attuned to a wired world.
