The much-anticipated environmental encyclical that Pope Francis plans to issue this summer is already being translated into the world’s major languages from the Latin final draft, so there’s no more tweaking to be done, several people close to the process have told me in recent weeks.

I can't imagine being smart enough to write something in Latin.

James Garfield could write the same sentence in Latin with one hand and Greek with the other.

He doesn't have to be smart. He has smart people working for him and he's also hoarding things like the arc of the covenant and other magical items.

Popes have to be smart enough to understand multiple languages at a bare minimum. They aren't dummies.

arc of the covenant
The Ark of the Covenant is (supposedly) in the possession of the Ethiopian Orthodox, not the Vatican.

As a Catholic, I'm wondering why the Pope is writing about climate change? A subject in which is isn't infallible in..

So when can we expect the pope's thoughts on deflategate?

This. I'm not really interested in his opinion on non church/ faith related matters.
