1:48:00
to ask your advice.
1:48:04
Well, what advice
can I possibly give you,
1:48:08
my dear young brother?
1:48:10
God has given you
a most precious gift...
1:48:13
the grace to approach Him
through His beloved creatures.
1:48:17
What more can you want?
1:48:19
Simple people understand us,
but the others...
1:48:23
Perhaps we've made mistakes.
1:48:25
This is what we want to know.
1:48:27
Is it not possible, Holy Father,
1:48:29
to live according
to the teachings of our Lord?
1:48:33
Or have we sinned
through presumption?
1:48:35
If that be the case,
1:48:37
then we would like Your Holiness
1:48:39
to tell us of our errors.
1:48:41
My dearest son,
errors will be forgiven.
1:48:46
In our obsession
with original sin,
1:48:50
we too often
forget original innocence.
1:48:59
Don't let that happen to you.
1:49:03
You've brought me,
dear children,
1:49:07
great joy and a little sadness.
1:49:10
I, too, started my vocation...
oh, long ago...
1:49:15
in much the same way as you.
1:49:18
But, with time,
all that enthusiasm passed,
1:49:22
and the responsibilities
of church government
1:49:25
took hold of me, as you see.
1:49:29
And what will happen
to those who come after you?
1:49:32
Have you thought
enough about them?
1:49:34
But if it be true for us,
1:49:36
then how can it
not be true for them?
1:49:40
We are encrusted
1:49:43
with riches and power.
1:49:47
You,
1:49:49
in your poverty...
1:49:58
...put us to shame.
