„Welt auf der Kippeˮ – Widerspiegelungen der Brüche des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts in Peter Seewalds Biografie „Benedikt XVI. Ein Lebenˮ
Zaremba, Martyna (Katolicki Uniwersytet Lubelski Jana Pawła II & Towarzystwo Teologów Dogmatyków, 2024)
Joseph Ratzinger/Benedict XV was not only an outstanding theologian, but also a keen observer, diagnostician and prognosticator of time. His thinking looked far ahead, prophetically looked into the future and predicted the devastating consequences of human actions that are being realized today, e.g. the rapidly progressing secularization and the accompanying decline in the number of young people in the Church. Both as a moderate modernist and a convinced conservative, he sensed the approaching collapse or self-destruction of humanity living without God. In his opinion, the world is on the brink of an abyss. That is why Benedict XVI, in his countless speeches and writings, has repeatedly called on humanity to take care of the environment, so that the earth, which the Creator has entrusted to man as a responsible mission, can also be passed on to other generations.
