  2. While I dislike, and in dislike I mean abhorrer, religion as a whole- the Pope is so much more open minded (if that's even possible) than so many other religious leaders- especially the Mormon prophet.

    1. Heather -- I have mixed feelings about Pope Francis. On one hand, I admire his environmental advocacy and his calls to protect the marginalized. On the other hand, he still needs to do more to address homophobia, sexism, and clergy abuse in the Catholic Church.
