I appreciate to be challenged with new ideas and perspectives but have a low tolerance for personal attacks. I am a Dad to 2 teen boys, a husband, and a Christian (member of the Latin Rite of the Catholic Church). I'm also a CS college educator.

Pope Leo XIV implored clergy in church authority to "make oneself small" in order to glorify Christ, echoing a theme of his predecessor Pope Francis in his first public Mass on May 9.
Pope Leo XIV to church authority: 'Make oneself small' to glorify Christ
During Mass for cardinals, Scripture was read in both English and Spanish — a nod to the new pope's missionary work in both the United States and Peru.
