|signature = FirmaPapaFrancisco.svg |coat_of_arms = Insigne Francisci.svg }} Pope Francis ((ラテン語:Franciscus); (イタリア語:Francesco); (スペイン語:Francisco); born Jorge Mario Bergoglio, 17 December 1936) is the 266th and current Pope of the Roman Catholic Church, a title he holds ''ex officio'' as Bishop of Rome, and Sovereign of the Vatican City. Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Bergoglio worked briefly as a chemical technologist and nightclub bouncer before beginning seminary studies. He was ordained a Catholic priest in 1969 and from 1973 to 1979 was Argentina's provincial superior of the Society of Jesus. He was accused of handing two priests to the National Reorganization Process during the Dirty War, but the lawsuit was ultimately dismissed. He became the Archbishop of Buenos Aires in 1998 and was created a cardinal in 2001 by Pope John Paul II. He led the Argentine Church during the December 2001 riots in Argentina, and the administrations of Néstor Kirchner and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner considered him a political rival. Following the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI on 28 February 2013, a papal conclave elected Bergoglio as his successor on 13 March. He chose Francis as his papal name in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi. Francis is the first Jesuit pope, the first from the Americas, the first from the Southern Hemisphere and the first non-European pope since the Syrian Gregory III in 741. Throughout his public life, Pope Francis has been noted for his humility, emphasis on God's mercy, concern for the poor, and commitment to interfaith dialogue. He is attributed to having a humble, less formal approach to the papacy than his predecessors, for instance choosing to reside in the Domus Sanctae Marthae guesthouse rather than in the papal apartments of the Apostolic Palace used by his predecessors. In addition, due to both his Jesuit and Ignatian aesthetic, he is known for favoring simpler vestments void of ornamentation, including refusing the traditional papal mozzetta cape upon his election, choosing silver instead of gold for his piscatory ring, and keeping the same pectoral cross he had as Cardinal. He maintains that the church should be more open and welcoming. He does not support unbridled capitalism, Marxism, or Marxist versions of liberation theology. Francis maintains the traditional views of the church regarding abortion, euthanasia, contraception, homosexuality, ordination of women, and priestly celibacy. He opposes global warming, consumerism, and irresponsible development, a focus of his papacy with the promulgation of ''Laudato si'''. In international diplomacy, he helped to restore full diplomatic relations between the U.S. and Cuba. ==Personal life== Jorge Mario Bergoglio was born on 17 December 1936 in Flores,〔 a neighborhood of Buenos Aires. He was the eldest〔 of five children of Mario José Bergoglio and Regina María Sívori. Mario Bergoglio was an Italian immigrant accountant〔 born in Portacomaro (Province of Asti) in Italy's Piedmont region. Regina Sívori〔 was a housewife born in Buenos Aires to a family of northern Italian (Piedmontese-Genoese) origin.〔〔〔 Mario José's family left Italy in 1929, to escape the fascist regime of Benito Mussolini. María Elena Bergoglio, the Pope's only living sibling, confirmed that their emigration was not for economic reasons.〔 His other siblings were Alberto Horacio, Oscar Adrián and Marta Regina. Two great-nephews, Antonio and Joseph, died in a traffic collision.〔〔 In the sixth grade, Bergoglio attended Wilfrid Barón de los Santos Ángeles, a school of the Salesians of Don Bosco, in Ramos Mejía, Buenos Aires. He attended the technical secondary school Escuela Técnica Industrial N° 27 Hipólito Yrigoyen,〔 named after a past President of Argentina, and graduated with a chemical technician's diploma.〔 He worked for a few years in that capacity in the foods section at Hickethier-Bachmann Laboratory〔 where his boss was Esther Ballestrino. Before joining the Jesuits, Bergoglio worked as a bar bouncer and as a janitor sweeping floors, and he also ran tests in a chemical laboratory.〔〔 In the only known health crisis of his youth, at the age of 21 he suffered from life-threatening pneumonia and three cysts. He had part of a lung excised shortly afterwards.〔〔 Bergoglio has been a lifelong supporter of San Lorenzo de Almagro football club.〔 Bergoglio is also a fan of the films of Tita Merello,〔 neorealism, and tango dancing, with an "intense fondness" for the traditional music of Argentina and Uruguay known as the ''milonga''.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pope Francis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
