McSame_as_Bush 05/08/25 1:46:33 PM #108:	There has never been a pope from the United States, and the conventional wisdom remains that any American would be a long shot. Yet one American who some Vatican watchers say could scrape together enough votes is Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, 69, a Chicago-born polyglot who is viewed as a churchman who transcends borders. He served for two decades in Peru, where he became a bishop and a naturalized citizen. He then rose to lead his international religious order. Until the death of Pope Francis, he held one of the most influential Vatican posts, running the office that selects and manages bishops globally. The cardinal, who is a member of the Order of St. Augustine, resembles Francis in his commitment to the poor and migrants. Often described as reserved and discreet, Cardinal Prevost would depart stylistically from Francis. His supporters say he would most likely continue the consultative process started by Francis to invite lay people to meet with bishops. It is unclear whether he would be as open to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Catholics as Francis was. Although he has not said much recently, in a 2012 address to bishops, he lamented that Western news media and popular culture fostered sympathy for beliefs and practices that are at odds with the Gospel. He cited the homosexual lifestyle and alternative families comprised of same-sex partners and their adopted children. The cardinal, like many others, has drawn criticism over his dealings with priests accused of sexual abuse. Attempts to reach the cardinal were not successful. https://www.nytimes.com/article/next-pope-francis-candidates.html#link-631298fd --- https://primarynewssource.org/ <cite>McSame_as_Bush posted [p:984997744] in BREAKING: ...
