Pope Benedict XVI Writing Book About Jesus
Pope Benedict XVI is writing a book about Jesus while on holiday in the Italian Alps, the Rome daily La Repubblica reported Tuesday.
Officials at the Vatican declined to comment on the report. The newspaper says the book will be aimed at rank-and-file Catholics.
Benedict, a theologian by training, has been a prolific author since his years as a professor in his native Germany.
While on his July 11-28 holiday, the pope has taken drives through the mountains and played classical music on a piano. On Tuesday, he made an unexpected stroll across the border into Switzerland where he visited a monastery and a kennel of St. Bernard dogs.
