The delayed white smoke from the Sistine Chapel on Thursday indicates a new pope selection – it is the first from the United States.
Thousands of miles away in Illino, the feeling of one was welcomed previously known as Robert Privost, who now finds himself the most Verified and strong position In the world, at the time of intense turmoil.
“I am on the floor, gobmak,” said a Perisian Mark Piper of St. Bernabas Church on the south side of Chicago. “I didn’t expect the American Pope.”
Born and Growing up in the third largest city in the United States, Father Sergio Romeo, a priest of St. Andrew, Pontif, said: “He is definitely a feeling of pride that he is from Chicago.
“People under the leadership of Conclave used to ask, ‘What is the possibility of an American Pope?’ And I informed the conventional knowledge, it was a very thin possibility, “he said. “Several people call me and say, ‘Oh, you were wrong!'”
Privost’s name was promoted in recent weeks as a possible upset candidate to succeed Pope Francis – But the betting markets have reduced the adversity of Chicago to less than 1 percent.
Pope Leo XIV, as he will be familiar with a challenge with a challenge Vatican And claims to protect children from sexual abuse by priests.
Under President Donald Trump, his birthplace will have to run a church through geographical turmoil from the United States.
The Vatican For decades, the United States has seen the United States as a friend in support of liberal global discipline in search of religious independence in more authoritarian regions. However, Trump’s unexpectedness surrounds Holy Ce.
Cardinals have chosen a leader who can face the US President more ideally with the relatively progressive world view of his predecessor Francis.
“Once we needed to have a pope who would speak for human rights in Russia and China,” said Massimo Faggioli, a professor at Vilanova University, studying Pontif. “You need someone now who can tell the truth about American power.”
Born in Chicago in the 5th, Privost created a career in the Church shortly after leaving the school. He studied mathematics in Vilanova before joining the order of St. Augustine and as a priest at the age of 26.
His constructive years were spent in Peru, where he worked for more than a decade in Archdosis of Truzillo. Privyst emerged as a local church whose bishops were divided among the leftists, Latin America’s liberation was greatly affected by the theology, and was influenced by the arched arches with close relations with Opas Dei.
Privost returned to Peru as a bishop from 20 to 2021. There he said in the first speech like the Pope on Thursday, “A trusted person came with their bishop and shared his faith”.
Peruvian President Dina Bolwart said in a television speech on Thursday, “He chose to be one of us, to be in us and to carry on his heart to bear faith, culture and dreams of this nation.”
Prabist Pope caught the attention of Francis, who appointed him as a bishop in the 21st and promoted him quickly. Argentina’s Pontif called him to Rome in 2021 to lead the Bishop appointment for a bishop appointment – an act that allowed him to create a network across the Global Catholic leadership.
Nevertheless, in the top job of the Church of the Preveest – and the world’s 1.5 billion Catholics – tries to capture his original belief and try to search in his leadership style.
The name Leo’s name suggests that Privost will continue in his predecessor’s progressive vein. At the beginning of the twentieth century Pope Leo was twelfth, the author Revolutionary Encyclicly letter, often considered as the first step in acceptance of the political modernity of the Catholic Church, and it included Christian defense of workers’ rights.
Greg Pierce, publisher of Chicago Acta Publications, said, “He returned to the 5th and chose Leo Dwadash.” “It’s about to send a message to Donald Trump and his friends. This pope will never come back to any kind of old way.”
However, the new Pontif is also a member of the Augustinian order, which supports the more traditional -based theologian views.
David Dean, who taught the Christian doctrine at the Atlantic School of Theology in Halifax, Canada, said, “Conclave was torn, but the prevast was tolerable to both sides – conservative and progressive champions.”
“On the one hand he’s critic of Trump and [US vice-president JD] Their outlook about vans and immigration. He is a defender of minorities, a synodal way and supporter of the environment. However, she was also opposed to female decons and priests, she was a hardline in abortion and opposed to ‘gender ideals’. “
John Allen Jr., editor of the Independent Catholic News website Crux, said the new Pope will have a titrop to keep the Catholic social education and Washington and ITS. The dominant “Maga” Catholic Oneside.
Allen said Pope Leo was “clearly navigated” to “clearly protecting his relationship with the US government, Allen said.”
“If you want to do something, they have to work with them,” he added. “It would be a wonderful fine balance for the strike.”
