Now we have the talebangelicals, Opus Dei, and social liberation Catholics in the mix. This is a very good development, IMO.

I always felt that the best counterweight to the xtian supremacists would be the true moral religionists, such as James Talerico, and Pope Leo.

May the new pope live a long and productive life.
