I agree that Pope Francis is promoting essential Christian values; but I disagree with the suggestion that this somehow is in contrast with Pope John Paul II. There you cross over into a hermeneneutics whose ideology  does not help the cause of those values. Pope John Paul II ought to be saved from the conservative misinterpretation of JP2 as the conservative's Pope. What John Paul II had to say about human rights, about economy, about the third world, about ecumenism, about the Council, about religious liberty, about materialism, about the fundamental reading of the Gospel, about theology of the body, etc. cannot be reduced to a conservative take on things.
