He speaks Italian, French and Spanish and earned degrees from Pontifical universities in Rome.

Does he speak English? Sorry in this day and age one cannot assume all Americans can...

Wow, I'm stunned. I'm just catching it as 'breaking news' on local TV. I can't help but be a little disappointed. I was hoping for someone a little more conservative (or conservative at all) for Washington. Wow.

NYer, I know that your Maronite Bishop is young 'un. Do the Maronites tend to stick to the retirement at 75 rule, or is treated as "optional" as some of the other eastern Catholic churches do.
