And I mean that by capital C Catholic, in what I see and what he does every day. No, it’s not to say that he’s — does everything entirely consistent with Catholic teaching, that’s not the idea. But I think, in fact his view of the person and his view of our role, and the view of us as adding to the common good, I think is an undeniably Catholic set of premises, and -- and that’s why I -- I say that to him a lot.”
