Why it matters: The long-awaited document, Magnifica Humanitas ("Magnificent Humanity") , signals that the Vatican is aggressively positioning itself as a central moral authority in the global tech debate. Driving the news: The Vatican released Leo's first encyclical on Monday, which he signed at St. Peter's on May 15, 2026, in the second year of his pontificate. - It was signed exactly 135 years after Leo XIII's Rerum Novarum , the landmark 1891 encyclical that became the foundation of modern Catholic social teaching during the…
