Here is the cover of the new book of essays by Pope Benedict XVI being released in Italian. This is a collection, but a brand new collection, on the topic of love.

Look at the signature.

Benedictus PP XVI

Not so much as a (meaningless) “emeritus” in sight.

PP is the abbreviation of the Latin “Pontifex Pontificum“, Pontiff of pontiffs. As in, supreme.

Once again, another visible piece of evidence to add to the Everest-sized mountain.
