“We need to form the future priests not by teaching them general and abstract ideas, which are clear and distinct, but about this keen discernment of spirits so that they can help people in their concrete life. We need to truly understand this: in life not all is black on white or white on black. No! The shades of gray prevail in life. We must teach them to discern in this gray area” (Pope Francis, excepted from la Civilta Catholica- 25th August, 2016)
