Some users are surprised by the site’s existence and content. One user said:

I’m somewhat surprised it’s still up, given the rather firm refusal by Francis to allow the Latin mass at churches that wanted it in the States.

Another user found the site’s writing to be more readable than expected:

I used to think the Vatican would be old-fashioned, but the writing on its site is more readable than I expected. In particular, while reading the section “Development: Humanism and Posthumanism,” I found it interesting to compare the religious worldview of the West with my own more humanistic worldview.

The Vatican’s site even touches on modern topics like AI, with a passage that one user found to be similar to recent debates:

At the application level, AI in the strict sense raises questions about the reliability of data and the criteria by which programmers process it so as to make it available. It is unclear what biases or power systems influence the work.
