Still available for reading on La Repubblica's website as of Thursday morning, the interview garnered international attention for many of the things Pope Francis said.
Remarks the Pontiff made that turned heads included his statement that "proselytism is solemn nonsense" and that every person "has his own idea of good and evil and must choose to follow the good and fight evil as he conceives them."
The interview helped perpetuate the notion that Francis, who became Pope earlier this year, was more progressive than his predecessor and may change some key traditional positions of the Roman Catholic Church politically and theologically.
