It should be interesting to see how the media treats the new pope.  With so many Hispanics being Catholic, any criticism of the pope will not be received very well by the faithful, whether they are strict believers or not.  Perhaps the sectarian left will have to tone down their abuse and disdain of those who profess their Christian faith.  I understand that Pope Francis I is a conservative and compassionate man and believes in liberation theology, also known as wealth redistribution.   I cannot say this does not concern me, but I do not know enough yet to comment one way or the other.  The scandals of pedophile priests have estranged many believers.  I hope he will be able to have a positive effect on restoring Christian morals and values to the faithful.
