Benedict XVI's remarks on Aids and condoms in his book-length interview Light of the World (full excerpt and full text of Vatican clarification) have attracted comment from John Allen, Damian Thompson, Archbishop Charles Chaput, Jack Valero, Janet Smith, Lisa Graas, Austen Ivereigh, Thomas Peters, John Thavis, Elizabeth Scalia, Amy Welborn, Jimmy Akin, Stephen Bates, Jeff Miller, Andrew Brown and Fr James Martin SJ.
In the new book, which is officially released on Tuesday, the Pope also addresses the Williamson affair, Communion in the hand, how he felt when he became Pope, whether John Paul II wanted him to be his successor, whether he would ever resign, banning burkas and Pius XII.
