He is a bit more tolerant than most popes. He seems to accept gay people. He seems to respect science. But still, he is a leader of a corrupt institution. I have trouble trusting people in that particular institution. I respect the work of nuns like Sister Joan Chittister and Sister Simone Campbell. They have done a lot of work for human rights and are feminist. But I do not understand how they can remain Catholic.

Don't you think that protecting pedophiles is enough to reject him? In Argentina is not well liked.

There is no such thing as a good Pope, and NEVER has been.

Protecting child predators automatically drops you down to bad in my book. He's the face of a terrible brand. He told people where AIDS is a problem not to use condoms. He spreads misinformation for a living. Need I go on?

Pope = Mostly Bad with some good thrown in just like most any other supreme authority
The Man = Probably mostly good with some bad things thrown in, just like any other human being.

Yes.
