As for the sexual misconduct stuff.   I think those people should be swept out quietly if they did the crime.   I'm sure there were lots of unfounded allegations as well.   But I also think that there was a blind eye turned to these matters in the past.

He has focused on the troubles of the poor, which — despite the American evangelical movement — is supposed to be one of the chief focuses of the church. If it got back to that, it would get back to spreading Catholicism. 

I'm not Catholic, but I think he's doing a lot for Christianity. Much better than spending his time worrying about the death of Latin, worrying about traditions or the use of contraceptives while helping to promote sex abuse within his flock.
