🔴   Francis was my pope, right or wrong

1k 🔥       Politics

On Monday, April 21, Pope Francis passed away at his residence in the Vatican. Formerly the Cardinal Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Jorge Mario Bergoglio ascended to the papal throne on March 13, 2013. He took the name Francis after St. Francis of Assisi, the medieval founder of the Franciscan Order. Francis’s reign as supreme pontif lasted 12 years. The Catholic Church is far older than the liberal notion of egalitarianism, just as it is far older than the modern conception of a political 'left' and 'right.' Before we move on to speculating about the next pope, I think it is appropriate to reflect on Pope Francis and the nature of his office.
