Everyone who believes that a single man can reform a Millennia institution in a few years, does not know the Catholic Church or its representatives, rope teams and intrigue competitions.
Especially the Germans make a sport to list what Jorge Mario Bergoglio did not succeed. Already with “her” Pontifex Joseph Ratzinger, our neighbors exceeded their pontificate badly. Benedict XVI. And Francis was anything but infallible, but both church men did everything to make a world that has increasingly become out of joint.
Not a big reformer
Yes, the Argentinian with Italian roots will not go into history as a great reformer, but at the right time he did the right thing: humility and modesty. The prince of the church fell off. Yourself -Lady Egomaniac in the Curia read the Levites. Socially weak and people on the edge of society gave a voice. Carefully mentioned to the ecclesiastical basis.
This path that Francis has taken is the right thing to give the church relevant in the 21st century. It is only hope that his successor will continue.
