Itsa da fricken Pope
People need to get it right.
While I like his viewpoints on poverty and the church's changing roles in the world, this Pope is still very old school in a lot of his beliefs concerning gay marriage and contraceptives.
I think the church needs to do a radical reform ala edict of worms in order to become relevant in the world again and become a power for good.
While trying to do more for the poor is laudable, I don't believe that he's as strong of a reformer as people are thinking he is.
