The preface lays out the original source content for a large part of the text (the first half) as modified versions of the five 1988 Massey lectures he delivered over Canadian Broadcasting Corporation radio in November 1988 (his original five lectures can be listened to here).

It then goes on to lay the basis for what the book is about: capitalist democracies and how power is handled, mainly how the power is kept from the masses through illusions and propaganda.

This sentence is a very interesting one that shines light into the mind of Pope Francis I and his humility.

There is, within the Catholic Church, a catechism, or “a text which contains the fundamental Christian truths formulated in a way that facilitates their understanding” known as the Major Catechism of the Catholic Church. This doctrinal document, crafted from 1985 to 1992 when Pope John Paul II approved it, serves as the universal cathecism or major doctrinal text from which all other catechisms for both local and national groups of Catholics will draw inspiration, doctrine, and materials from.

Think of the Catechism of the Catholic Church as the one document which concisely lists the doctrines and Christian truths which serve as the basis for all Catholic understanding.

Within the Catechism of the Catholic Church (specifically Article 10, Section I), it is taught that one baptism erases the original sin and thus allows man to come closer to God. It adds, however, that baptism does not rid us of the temptation of sin and evil, defined as “concupiscence” as opposed to sin. However, the Pope states regardless of the baptism he had as a Catholic faithful, sin remains in all of us–him included, and by calling himself a sinner, he humbly reminds the faithful that even a Pope has tendency to sin. We are all fallible (or so the rhetoric goes).
