Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone, of the Archdiocese of San Francisco, told Newsmax on Wednesday that the papal conclave that began earlier in the day was the most diverse ever and “a sign of who the Catholic Church really is.”

“The cardinals present in that conclave are a very good representation of the Catholic Church,” Cordileone said on “American Agenda.” “We encompass countries all over the globe of all different races and all different languages. … Pope Paul VI in the 1970s saw the need to internationalize the Roman Curia, to bring priests and religious workers from all over the world so the church can be better connected all around the globe. And as he said, now we see the full flourishing of that 50 years later with that internationalization. … We’re a church for everyone all over the world.”

Cordileone said the diversity of the College of Cardinals might lead to a longer conclave than in previous years because they might need more time to gain an understanding of one another. …
