Newly appointed Pope Leo XIV, formerly Chicago-born Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
made headlines after a surprising moment on May 28 when he caught a cloth doll mid-air, thrown by a White Sox fan while riding in the popemobile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The doll was dressed like the pope during his first appearance at St. Peter\u2019s Basilica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the one-handed catch impressed many and showcased his American flair,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
social media users quickly raised concerns about his security. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAdorable but his security is definitely slipping,\u201d one person tweeted, with others echoing concerns about safety risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since being welcomed on May 8, Pope Leo has called for peace in Ukraine, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
a ceasefire in Gaza, and praised a peace agreement between India and Pakistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also addressed the challenges posed by artificial intelligence, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
drawing parallels to Pope Leo XIII\u2019s 1891 letter on the Industrial Revolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pope Leo said the Church must respond to AI as it once did to industrialization, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
reaffirming its commitment to human dignity and justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He praised Pope Francis for his humility and service, calling him an inspiration for modern leadership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
