CWN Editor's Note: Following Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica and prayer, the third session of the extraordinary consistory of the College of Cardinals (program) opened today with an address by Cardinal Stephen Brislin of Johannesburg, South Africa.
Reflecting on Magnifica Humanitas, Pope Leo’s encyclical on safeguarding the human person in the time of artificial intelligence, Cardinal Brislin said that for believers, contributing to the common good “takes on the form of synodality.”
“Cardinal Brislin described synodality as the concrete trace of the communion from which the Church is born and grows, enabling Christians to enter the building site of history without fear,” Vatican News reported in its summary of the prelate’s remarks.
