Encyclical coming ...

CNS (among others) is reporting that Pope Benedict has written his first encyclical letter, which will be published in December.

Pope Benedict has yet to publish a major papal document, although he recently completed work on a 46-page encyclical for release in early December. Sources told Catholic News Service that the encyclical was a spiritual meditation focused in large part on "eros" (love) and "logos" (the word) and their relationship to the person of Christ.
(The rest of the article is on whether he'll publish a post-synodal exhortation or not. All indications are that he will.)

And Rocco wants to remind you that he'd broken this story a while back. :) Go Rocco!

As to the topic, if CNS is right, then, well ... wow. [Breath bated]
