Pope Francis identified "the great novelty of Christianity" at yesterday's Angelus (full text, full video). Senior Australian bishops have visited the Vatican to discuss "the restoration of trust". The ex-rector of a Legionaries of Christ-run seminary intends to leave priestly ministry after fathering two children. A court will hear an appeal this week to keep the body of Fulton Sheen in St Patrick's Cathedral. Paul Huang asks why the highest-ranking official of Chinese origin is leaving the Vatican. Sandro Magister argues that Cardinal Pietro Parolin has a "very realistic" chance of becoming pope. And Nick Ripatrazone wonders why so many classic American horror films are "explicitly Catholic".
