教皇将2016年定为特殊的慈悲禧年,已从2015年的12月8号开始。慈悲年里,有一些"罪"会被原谅,比如离婚。天主教教义繁复苛求,仪式神秘华美。
'I have decided to announce an Extraordinary Jubilee which has at its centre the mercy of God. It will be a Holy Year of Mercy. We want to live in the light of the word of the Lord: “Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful” (cf. Lk 6:36). And this especially applies to confessors! So much mercy!
圣彼德大殿的正门只有在慈悲年才被打开,上一次慈悲年是2000年,结束时保罗二世封的门。这一次,15年后,门又被打开⋯神是永恒的,而红尘却转瞬即逝。保罗二世已在殿里与神同在了。
我去天主教堂,总是对忏悔的小木厅赶兴趣,是小时候读牛氓读多了留下的后遗症,看这张教皇和许悔者的照片,又想起了亚瑟……下一个慈悲年,一定去梵蒂冈。
