Dr. Mazza: "He [Benedict] actually issues Apostolic Blessings in his own name. Can you and I go and do that? I mean, no, we’re not the Pope"
In an interview on PCM, renowned Catholic historian Dr. Edmund Mazza, a former full professor of history at Azuza Pacific University, revealed that Benedict "actually issues apostolic blessings in his own name. Can you and I go and do that? I mean, no, we’re not the pope":
"Well, the fact that he wears white, the fact that his official title is His Holiness, the fact that he actually issues apostolic blessings in his own name. Can you and I go and do that? I mean, no, we’re not the pope. So how can two people in Rome do that?" [[https://www.thecatholicmonitor.com/2021/10/exclusive-transcription-is-benedict-xvi.html]
