The Cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church have chosen the Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Jorge Mario Bergoglio as the new pope. He will be known as Pope Francis.
Bergoglio, of Italian ancestry, was born in Argentina in 1936. he is a Jesuit intellectual who is known to eschew private limousines and to travel by bus. He is said to have a great compassion and burden for the poor and places great emphasis on spirituality and personal holiness.
Though many Catholics, especially in the United States and Europe, had hoped for a "progressive" pope, Bergoglio has made known his opposition to the legalization of same-sex marriage, the adoption of children by homosexuals, abortion, euthanasia, and liberation theology.
