Pope Francis On Gay Priests: 'Who Am I To Judge?' | ThinkProgress:

"Pope Francis has framed himself as a more inclusive—or at least more populist—pope since ascending to the Catholic church’s highest position earlier this year. He has received praise from many religious progressives in recent months for a series of actions that reach beyond traditional Catholics, including washing the feet of women as well as Muslims during mass; inviting homeless to dine with him at the vatican; calling on priests to drive more “humble” cars; and for publicly declaring that all people—even atheists—can be redeemed by God."

I'm not Catholic and generally have criticized much about Christianity over the decades. But I like the new Pope's style. I have long thought a progressive Pope could do wonders because of his stature and the world stage he occupies. I can't recall liking a Pope as much as my first reaction to this one. I'd like to see him lead a march on the White House. That ought to shake up our ignorant arrogant government a bit ha ha.
