re: #158 Spare O’Lake

Oh, I get it now.
First the Pope shook his hand.
Then, someone told the Pope what the guy had said.
Then, the Pope walked out.
Is there any evidence that is what actually happened?

No evidence, but the time line makes sense

The introductions and shaking of hands (and photo ops) usually happens BEFORE speeches, as the invitees are being presented to each other up on stage.

Then the various speakers make their remarks.
