Clever writers have always been able to parse the words and phrases of any individual so as to portray them as having a philosophy or point of view that comports with whatever the writer wishes to suggest.
This ability is not reserved to the either the right or the left. Both camps are quite capable of presenting their version of the truth equally. Monsignor Pope is not an exception but seems quite talented in this art as well.
But what Pope Francis (or the leader of any organization for that matter) stands for and promotes is only correctly measured by the results; not by what some spin doctor might say they represent. As a very famous man once said, every good tree bears good fruit; but a bad tree bears bad fruit. By any reasonable and rational measure, the Catholic Church, headed up by the modernist popes since John XXIII, has not borne good fruit.
Monsignor Popes view is the voice of the neo-Catholics. Until the bishops and the popes recognize that they must return to teaching the true faith, rather than depend upon favorable media to tout their successes, those who seek a holy Church will search in vain.
