they have no religion (2023).<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u201cWhat was going through your mind as you walked to the conclave?\u201d asked the reporter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight:

felt the weight of the responsibility of what we were going to do,\u201d shared the Cardinal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reporter concluded the seventeen minute interview with this question, \u201cI have to ask, what are the odds that the Pope will come here [to Uruguay]?\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI would say very high, because he has it very clear in his mind, that Argentina and Uruguay were missing in Francis\u2019 itinerary (not in his desire to visit), but those trips did not become a reality.\u00a0 I believe his first visit to Latin America will have Argentina and Uruguay on its itinerary, and very possibly Peru.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This could very well only be the Cardinal\u2019s opinion, but at the same time, he just got back from the conclave and may know something. \u00a0Time will tell!<\/p>\n<p>Listen to the interview in Spanish <a
