abortion or even contraception. how does he resolve that tension? i m not sure you can resolve it when it s a matter of principal. all those matters weren t around 50 years ago. what has happened to our culture that suddenly these become cultural imperatives? in history, when you take a look at societies that come and go, when the chips are down, people usually go with their society, usually, not always, and those that don t are often the minoertd. we want to create a security that isn t quite as odds with the gospel of jesus christ as it seems ours has become, so the phenomenon you re talking about is gnaw new, again, however, the church is universal, so we have to stay with the entire church, and we have to say with categories the aren t cultural. conservative and cultural are what you re using. our categories are what is true and what is false and what is the evidence for that. i have to ask you in closing, if you could describe the sense of spiritual renewal you feel
and we have to stay with categories that aren t cultural. conservatives and liberals are the categories you use. you ll be using them today. our categories are what is true and what is false and then what s the evidence for that? i have to ask you in closing if you could describe the sense of spiritual renewal you feel with pope francis. i m not catholic but i was certainly caught up in that sense of renewal that i think canal licks and non-catholics feel alike when you have such an important transition like this. well, all i can say is that during the conclave i felt personally a deep sense of the presence of the lord, even as you vote, and you write that name, you have to be sure that you re free, that you re not doing it for self-interest. and you have to be sure the man you re electing is free to do the ministry. so in that freedom, there will be renewal, i believe. your eminence, we appreciate your time very much this morning. thank you, david. good being with you. god ble
