So true, KarlX.

>>Perhaps it's just that no one is in the market for what you have on offer Pericles.<<

Without the cassock and biretta, what's a chap to do? The competition is just too fierce.

Perhaps this recent statement might clarify some points in the article - for those who are more interested in the topic of the article than in … well, anyhow, here is the link:

Dear George,

Thanks for that. Those were difficult times. Archbishop Romero made strong statements and was murdered. Pope Francis tread more carefully and survived. From his record he should be an improvement over the recent popes. I really don't know that anyone could have done better under the circumstances.

This gives me an idea for a song:

Power to the papal, power to the papal
Power to the papal, power to the papal, right on
You say we want a revolution

The deafening silence of the government side on the announcement of an Argentinian cardinal becoming Pope was in keeping with their Marxist credentials.

One hopes that the Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner later had the decency to relay the government's best wishes through Argentina's ambassador to the Holy See.
