i am afraid that i overuse the word ''love.''  (i ''love'' him as long as he agrees with me.!!!!)   i agree about Degollado -but from my readings, it does appears that Francis has evolved since then.  the Francis that we know was a surprise to the cardinal-voters.!!!  we should all so evolve!!! i purchased Mark Shriver's book ''PILGRIMAGE.my search for the real pope francis.''   it should be interesting. Mark doesn't seem to be someone who has his neck stuck in the sand.  i will ''report'' on it at the appropriate time.  thank you
