The person of Jorge Bergolio should be minimal...The over emphasis of the person is indeed a problem.

This is not to say a Pope can't have a sense of humor, or even show off his personality, but with high offices comes high expectations. <br /><br />This is something I really liked about Pope Benedict XVI, that he was trying to curb the cult of personality and that really brought me to listen to him and embrace him. (I tend to think Pope Benedict XVI is an ISTJ like myself, and might explain my like of him even before he became Pope)<br /><br />I'm not rippping Pope Francis though, he's certainly allowed to be his own person, but I do think he's trying too hard to be something, and for that it's a major turn off especially to those of a traditional nature which tend to be more melancholic and reserve than most.
