De weblog Rorate Caeli heeft een interessant rapport over de vastenretraite voor paus Benedictus, gegeven door kardinaal Giacomo Biffi. Zo kwam ondermeer, aan de hand van Solovjev, het thema van de antichrist aan bod.
Een excerpt:
"Cardinal Biffi picked up on his oft repeated theme of the Antichrist, basing his remarks on the works of Vladimir Soloviev, a Russian theologian who has received praise from Pope Benedict prior to his elevation to the pontificate.Quoting Soloviev, the Cardinal said "the Antichrist presents himself as pacifist, ecologist and ecumenist." "He will convoke an ecumenical council and will seek the consensus of all the Christian confessions, granting something to each one. The masses will follow him, with the exception of small groups of Catholics, Orthodox and Protestants," he said according to a Zenit translation of a Vatican Radio summary here: http://www.radiovaticana.org/it1/Articolo.asp?c=120479 ."
