Liputan6.com, Vatican – City – The Middle World expects the results of the 2025 conclave, which will determine who the successor of the late Pope Francis will become the next leader of the Catholic Church. Many parties also expect what figure will become the next leader of the Holy See, whether it be more liberal or conservative.
In addition, anyone who will become the next dad will certainly encounter a big problem in the midst of world geopolitical changes.
Two cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church revealed the big problems that the highest leader of the next church should face. They also give an idea of the atmosphere before the selection process, which is sacred, not political.
Cardinal Michael Cherni from Canada, appointed by Pope Francis in 2019, confirmed that the cardinal was united in his spiritual duties. They do not participate in a political lobby or fierce debate behind the scenes.
“This is not a political convention. We do not trade in creating a consensus. We enter this process spiritually and full of prayer, ”said Cherni, quoting from the page ABC News, Thursday (5/5/2025).
According to ink, the problems that the new dad face are very relevant for the current global conditions, including the development of artificial intelligence (AI), an increase in the armed conflict in various parts of the world, as well as climatic crises. These things, according to him, concern the life of mankind everywhere, and the Catholic Church should take an active part.
“It is important that we exist in 2025, and not 12 or 100 years ago,” he said, emphasizing the importance of the relevance of the church and participation in modern matters.
Ink also emphasizes the hopes of the young generation for a more inclusive church.
He said: “inclusiveness is another word of Catholic. This is part of the nature of the Church itself. ”
