text: An example of one of Francis' best traits - his emphasis on mercy and forgiveness? What should be made of this quote in the CNA report "he [Burke] noted that as faithful Catholics, those who have expressed doubt or concern over the confusion surrounding “Amoris Laetitia” love the Pope “with complete obedience to the office of Peter.”   One wonders if Burke has truly repented of his malicious attacks against Francis.  We'll see.
  
  Francis is exhibiting some prudence as well, since Burke will only be an advisor to the court, a detail that was not noted in the Catholic News Agency report.  Francis is more willing to listen to dissenters from his own views than were his predecessors, but he is smart enough to know that some "faithful" do not wish to "obey" the "office of Peter" when it is they who dissent .  Perhap - after the disaster of sending Burke to Malta - Francis has decided that the old axiom about keeping your friends close, and your enemies closer, is worth heeding.  Stay tuned.
