Today's online New York Times on the conclusion of the Roman Catholic Church's "World Youth" week—
"At the end of Sunday’s Mass, the pope announced that the next such event would be in Rio de Janeiro in 2013. Until then, he told those at the service, in Portuguese, that they 'will be swimming against the tide in a society with a relativistic culture, which wishes neither to seek nor hold on to the truth.'*"
* Fact check— This agrees with the Vatican Radio version.
