Pope Francis



Great piece about the Pope in the latest New York Times. In the article he laments the church's obsession with abortion, gay marriage, and contraception, and says that the church must get back to focusing on the most important teachings of the Bible; namely helping the least among us and showing love to our fellow man.

I must say, as a lifelong Catholic, I find this Pope to be a breath of fresh air. I know I've only lived through six papacies, but this is by far my all-time favorite Pope.
