He seems to be such a good man otherwise. I know he has had to walk a fine line with people of other religions, and I try to cut him some slack for the good he has done. He has reached out to all peoples which is what I think popes are supposed to do.
He has come down out of his ivory tower and mingled with the masses which I don't believe any other pope has done before. But, but . . . what is he saying and what is he supposed to be saying???
Doesn't it make one wonder WHY all those previous popes didn't do so? Perhaps it wasn't appropriate for their role and position? Were the previous couple hundred pope all wrong, and did this pope finally figure out the right formula? And if so, then when are we going to see the fruits of this new discovery about the pope's primary responsibility?
