"The Pope is a very democratic person, isn't he?" That's all Mary Catherine Moore, a non-Catholic American, could say after an episode in which she had sent a gold chain and cross to the Holy Father to be blessed and received it back from the Vatican Secretariate of State with the message that the Pontiff had given it his blessing, The reply from the Vatican Secretariate expressed " pleasure in returning the enclosed crucifix which has been blessed by His Holiness."
