re: #40 Lidane

If you think Francis is going to bring real, full-scale reform to the Vatican, I’ve got oceanfront property in Nebraska to sell you.

Yes, he has done some outreach to alienated groups and tried to soften the hardline focus on social issues that Pope Palpatine Benedict had, but he’s not going to rock the boat too far. Anyone who thinks he’s going to radically alter the church is dreaming.

He’s already gone a lot further than I would have guessed.
