Ratzinger and True Science

On this Labor Day, I've continued my reading of the Pope Emeritus' work, a way of passing the time which is a true labour of love. To read Scripture with the eyes of Ratzinger, or Augustine, or Aquinas is to read it with the eyes of the Church, and to read Scripture with the eyes of the [...]
