Falls ich Papst werden sollte

Everyone agrees: The Catholic Church is stuck in a reform backlog, and the Pope urgently needs to address the demands of our time and initiate a process of openness. But how should that happen? Adolf Holl has written a scenario for this. The suspended priest receives an unexpected call to the Holy See. He moves from Vienna to Rome with his girlfriend and cats. His partner takes over Castelgandolfo, while the disgraced writer manages the Vatican. Sixtus VI ('Sistoseso') sends copies of his fisherman's ring to the top priests of the Anglicans and the Orthodox. Dissident theologians like Boff, Drewermann, and Küng are appointed as cardinals, and numerous women follow them into this office. The Holy Father becomes a healing father. The fast-paced story of Sistosesto shows: This is how a transformation could succeed. With kindness, pleasure, and elegance. Adolf Holl, born in 1930, studied theology and philosophy in Vienna. He was ordained a priest in 1954. The publication of his book "Jesus in Bad Company" brought him into conflict with the Catholic Church. For forty years, he has been working as a writer and freelance journalist.
