"Go, Francis, and repair my house, which as you see is falling into ruin." - Jesus to St. Francis of Asissi.
So this guy is elected Pope and names himself Francis I. Clearly a nod to the ruinous state of the Church and a signal that he will be trying to repair it.
Is he going to stick with the doctrine he has espoused until now? Will he budge on the factors that are causing the Church to remain in ruin?
I have always liked what I know about the Origional St. Francis, I hope this Pope will live up to his name, but I doubt it.
Lets see.........
