I still will not change my views on religion, I will still not accept the existence of a God or an after-life, but some words coming from the new Pope really impress me.
Reported on Yahoo News (I assume what he said is translated): He showed a similar ease on Friday as he engaged in a good 30 minutes of banter with the schoolchildren, casually making the points he has made in his homilies and speeches: about the "scandal" of poverty and how the world frets when the stock market dips but cares nothing when a homeless person dies, and how everyone should learn a lesson from the poor.
Now if he can get some of the world's politicians and business leaders to listen and act - all power to him!
