Was reading where he is a Jesuit. and yet he chose a name from a notable Franciscan, in fact the founder of the Franciscan order. But I've always thought of the Jesuit order as the more scientific order of the church. Is that true or just an inaccurate perception? there are a lot of Jesuit educational institutions which might be why I think that. And given the vows that the Jesuits take, it would seem to me that there'll be a lot less pomp and circumstance and a lot more practical stuff coming from the Vatican.
Its interesting to observe. I'll bet they're going wild in Buenos Aires.
