The Pope was smiling ear to ear as they lowered the baby and brought her back to her parents. Dress your baby up like a tiny pontiff! Whether he was greeting the masses from the popemobile or just casually waving out the window of the zippy papal Fiat, seeing what mode of transportation would get the pope from one event to the next was nearly as fun as seeing the man himself. “Just a lovely experience”, Carol said.
But mostly Francis demonstrated a nuanced political dexterity, effectively sidestepping the familiar framework of United States debate while charting his own broader path. He advocated “life” but emphasised opposition to the death penalty, not abortion. “We need to invest our energies not so much in rehearsing the problems of the world around us and the merits of Christianity, but in extending a honest invitation to young people to be fearless and to opt for marriage and the family”.
