Responding to a series of questions published in Mr.Scalfari's paper, the Pontiff said,“You ask me if the God of the Christians forgives those who don’t believe and who don’t seek the faith. I start by saying – and this is the fundamental thing – that God’s mercy has no limits if you go to him with a sincere and contrite heart. The issue for those who do not believe in God is to obey their conscience ." “Sin, even for those who have no faith, exists when people disobey their conscience.” Robert Mickens, the Vatican correspondent for the Catholic Journal, The Tablet said the Pope's comment is to further shake off the Catholic Church's fusty image.
