Without fear to continue moving forward. From the long greeting of Pope Leo XIV from the balcony in which he has presented the world as a bishop of Rome and a new pontiff of the Catholic Church, several conclusions can be drawn, but I summarize them in the head of this analysis. First, his predecessor with that name was the Pope of the Rarewhich defined the social doctrine of the Roman Church when he had already lost intellectuals and was on his way to dispose of the workers. It has never been a revolutionary doctrine (in fact, it was born against class unionism, against socialism, against Marxism), but opened its way to a church open to that world after the locks Syllabus and the list of prohibited ideas and books. Pope Prevost records, choosing that name, of his missionary origins, which are always living among the poor and for the poor.
Second, the cardinals have agreed to choose a Bergoglian. He has made it clear Leo XIV in his speech, dedicating very affectionate paragraphs to the late Argentine pontiff. It is said that a dead king, king. In this case, it will happen in a peaceful way. Prevost is not Argentine or Jesuit and, therefore, as an Augustinian, he will speak little, he will measure his speeches, he will not improvise. But. He said it clearly at the beginning of his speech: “Without fear to continue advancing.”
Third note. Leo XIV is Augustine. A Jesuit happens an Augustinian. It occurs to me, even at the risk of making mistakes, that the complacency of John Paul II and Benedict XVI have ended with the so -called new movements, which have camp in recent decades to the disgust of the curia and Francis The return to the classic congregations, which have given so much glory to the Roman Church (let’s point that the congregations added about thirty votes in the conclave because Francisco was generous choosing them)
Pastor and manager. Pope Premost is polyglot (with seven languages, including Latin, exceptional thing), but as a missionary. But it is also very Italian, with years of management in the Vatican curia. Say curia that is government. Leo XIV has been Francisco as a prefect of the Dicastery of the Bishops, from where he has decided with the deceased Pope many hundreds of appointments and sowed his soft (Augustinian) way to relate.
The fact that Leo XIV has been curial will have undoubtedly reassured the conservative sector of the Cardinals College, because, if something reproached Francisco, he was freely paying attention to his government. In fact, he averaged the curia by naming, starting a famous G-9, with great prelates, but they were falling one after another: for an ugly issue of sexual abuse to minors (he was finally acquitted by the Supreme Court of that country), and also abandoned, by, according to him, not to have been diligent to stop the pedophiles in his country.
Post data. In command of the Augustinians for years, the new Pope is mathematical and philosopher, two professions that will be worth it to guide themselves in a world that premieres time, or that we fear, with very alarming geopolitical conflicts, and the irruption of artificial intelligence and a church that is said to be harassed by social networks so many times converted into fecal networks.
