More of the same though. I was hoping for someone more liberal, but I knew it was a long shot.
Interesting name he picked. One news site suggested it is after St. Frances of Assisi who isn't just considered the patron saint of animals and the environment, but was also involved in trying to convert muslims during one of the Crusades. The popes usually have some kind of reason for picking the name they do.
