Pope Benedict XVI turns back to his studio at the end of the Angelus prayer in St. Peter's square at the Vatican, Sunday, Jan. 2, 2011. The pontiff says that an attack outside a Mass in Egypt's Mediterranean port city of Alexandria "offends God and all of humanity." The pope expressed his grief at the attack in the early hours of the new year that killed 21 worshippers. Benedict said the suicide bombing was akin to putting bombs near churches in Iraq to prevent worshippers from attending Mass.

Pope Benedict XVI delivers his blessing on the occasion of the traditional exchange of Christmas greetings to the Curia, in the Regia Hall, at the Vatican, Monday, Dec. 20, 2010. Benedict XVI said Monday the Catholic Church must reflect on what is wrong with its message and Christian life in general that allowed for the widespread sexual abuse of children by priests. While accepting responsiblity for the scandal, Benedict said the abuse must also be seen in the broader social context, in which child pornography and sexual tourism are rampant, and where as recently as the 1970s pedophilia wasn't considered the absolute evil that it is today.
