Thompson contributes op-ed for the Los Angeles Times

Professor Margaret Thompson contributed an op-ed piece, as part of a series, for "What we need in a pope." Thompson believes that the "ideal pope would be prayerful, and inclusive in his understanding of the value of all humanity, one whose experience is primarily pastoral rather than administrative. Theologically, he would promote the richness and vitality of Catholic social teaching and advocate for implementing the spirit and substance of Vatican II."  02/12/13
