Well Catholics view Pope Francis living up to his namesake, Saint Francis of Assisi.

Not this, Catholic!

And the above statement about "living up to his namesake" is not true. St. Francis and his companions did their best to convert Muslims to Catholicism. Some of those Franciscans suffered martyrdom at the hands of the Muslims.

Pope Francis has made not attempt to do likewise. On the other hand, he does persecute today's Franciscans of the Immaculate solely because they had preferred to offer the same traditional Mass that St Francis and his companions had offered.

Got to remember what St. Francis famous saying: “Be ready to preach the Gospel and when necessary, use words”. Translation: Preach the Gospel of Jesus by HOW you LIVE IT.
