'Turning people into passive consumers of unthought thoughts'

That's brilliant! I'm not Catholic, I'm not even religious at all, and I've NEVER paid attention to any Pope, but this guy is different.

He's American with black heritage, so being different than the ones before is basically built in.

Never fear though, there's a shoe waiting to drop somewhere, there always is.
