Pope Francis has passed. His funeral is tomorrow. Many will be watching, many will be commenting. Many will want to know, “What is Frater Bovious thinking?”

Pope Francis has been a fairly polarizing Papa. To some, he was the great reformer, the long-overdue breath of fresh air. To others he was a source of confusion and possibly scandal. Still others see him as heretical. Interestingly, he seems very appreciated by many non-Catholics and even some atheists. The reasons for this bears some scrutiny.

The electronic fish wrap on which this newsletter is printed was ethically sourced from renewable quark farms. Not very many electrons were lost during the manufacture of this page, but those that were, sacrificed themselves willingly and count themselves blessed.
