POPE'S LITMUS TEST
Beliefnet commentator Paul Wilkes offers his 16-point litmus test for Pope Benedict. He recommends posting it up on the fridge so we can check it periodically to see how the Pope is doing.
Ok, maybe the idea has merit. What I can't see is the answers to these questions that Wilkes would like me to look for. When Wilkes gives Benedict a passing nod, I'll be the one shaking my head and saying too bad, he had such promise.
On the other hand, I hope and believe that in the days ahead I will be the one applauding on these points, and Wilkes will be the one gnashing his teeth.
