47:05Now PlayingOn a day with little precedent in the Catholic Church, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI was laid to rest on Thursday, January 5, following a funeral Mass at which Pope Francis presided.
In this interview, host Ricardo da Silva, S.J. speaks with America Media's Vatican correspondent Gerard O'Connell and David Gibson of Fordham University's Center on Religion and Culture. First, they discuss what made this first-ever funeral of a pope emeritus different from that of a pope who dies while still in office. In the second half of the episode, they discuss the legacy of Pope Benedict’s nearly eight years as pope and his 24 years as head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
