From Abortion to Euthanasia: How Will Pope Leo XIV Respond to the Culture of Death? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
NEWS ANALYSIS: The Pope’s upcoming visit to France following its recent legalization of euthanasia could shape our understanding of how the Leonine pontificate will navigate life issues, in Europe and abroad. One theme lingers in the background of all the major debates surrounding the Catholic Church: Life. Some say it is outdated to speak about moral issues pertaining to life and the family, that we should focus more on social issues, and that the Catholic Church should be less concerned with i
Leo XIV: A New Diplomacy? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ANALYSIS: Recent meetings between the Vatican and Moscow hint at a new era in diplomatic relations. Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher’s trip to Moscow marked a definitive paradigm shift in the Holy See’s diplomacy regarding the situation in Ukraine. We cannot know what was said behind closed doors during the bilateral meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

They aren’t all urgent matters, but what he decides in each of them will tell us a lot about how the Pope intends to shape his pontificate. These decisions will be subjected to the scrutiny of many, starting with those in the Vatican who continue to champion
Why China’s New Bishops Aren’t Excommunicated While the SSPX Is (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ANALYSIS: The comparison between the traditionalist and Chinese cases is compelling, but the Holy See sees two strikingly different situations. The schism of the traditionalist Priestly Society of St. Pius X (SSPX), and its aftermath, has highlighted how the unity in the Church that Leo XIV set as the primary goal of his pontificate is still far from being achieved. Indeed, the debate within the Church is still too heated, so much so that it’s difficult to fully understand the scope of what is h
