As a non practicing Catholic, I was very interested to see who the new Pope would be.
I, for one, am pleased by the selection of the Cardinal of Argentina. I listened to his address. I was struck by his seeming humbleness. His choice of a new name, Francis. His pleasant manner to every one. Saying to everyone, "Good night. Thank you for coming."
I just hope that this man can lead the Church forward into the future. There is SO much work to be done. I wish him well.
