Yes, I have some worries about Pope Francis. He’s got the usual Latin American sentimental leftism, made worse by the heavy Italian intellectual influence in Argentina, and even worse by the Argentinian and European love of statism, and is extremely into the grand gesture that he believes to be “pastoral,” without thinking about the consequences. He’s also very naive.
We know that Obama will be an ass, but Obama is very confident about his meeting with the Pope and I have seen several reports that he was very eager to arrange this. I think he felt that the Church was the one institutional enemy that he had, and while treasonous people such as Jenkins of Notre Dame weakened the Church’s power, he knows that if he gets the Pope to come out and support him - which Francis probably will do - he will have destroyed Catholic opposition in this country
wont happen, don’t worry.
I absolutely agree.. and it is very dangerous.
