Pope Francis is expected to meet Apple CEO Tim Cook today, a week after meeting Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt. A relic of St Thomas Becket will return to England from Hungary for the first time in more than 800 years in May. Sister Helen Prejean has delivered a thank-you note to Francis from a man spared execution after the Pope's intervention. Carlo Tecce says there is a "less than idyllic relationship" between some senior Italian bishops and Pope Francis. Martin Mosebach tells Navid Kermani why "a faithful Muslim is much closer to me than a Christian with de-theologised religion". Joanna Bogle, Fr Ray Blake, Fr John Hunwicke, Rocco Palmo, Joseph Shaw and Fr John Zuhlsdorf respond to the Pope's decision to alter the Holy Thursday foot-washing rite. And Sebastian Gomes asks why intra-Catholic dialogue is less respectful than ecumenical dialogue. Follow me on Twitter @lukecoppen for updates throughout the day.
