A case of unintentional consequences. Google Kirsten Powers and Pope Francis, to see the influence he had on her decision.

Could you provide one example? I'm not sure I see what you are getting at unless her decision came about because Francis doesn't sit on a "golden throne".

In the last year or so, some people have been wildly appropriating while others have been equally wildly rebuking quotes from Pope Francis. “Who am I to judge?” is one of them that has come to mean very different things to different people, often clouded by ideological hopes and fears. However, listening to him on an almost daily basis is a much more interesting endeavor: His words bring light to places that have been impenetrable, so that truth — even about what the pope he is actually saying — might just be able to get at the business of healing.

Truth, Served Up with Kindness
