Deosebirile nu trebuie să ne împiedice să vedem asemănările. Cei care îi scriu mesajele papale știu ,,meeserie“. Iată două sau trei extrase cu care nu se poate să nu fim de acord:

“The family is the nearest hospital, the first school for the young, the best home for the elderly,” Francis preached. “The family constitutes the best ‘social capital.’ It cannot be replaced by other institutions.”

“The family is also a small church” the Pope continued, “which, along with life, also mediates God’s tenderness and mercy. In the family, we imbibe faith with our mother’s milk.”

Apparently veering off script, the Pope said his mother was sometimes asked which of her five children was her favorite. They are like the five fingers of a hand, Francis recalled his mother replying. If pinched, each one hurts the same. – papa în America de sud
