I love this Holy Father for visiting Algeria my country of birth. I did grow up with the three faiths until I was 12. I went to school with a Muslim kid on my right and a Jewish on the left our great teacher was Alsatian and he taught us to love each other. He taught us History of Algeria and France it was a Laic school, but he instructed us about Moses, Jésus and Mohamed. We had pictures of them on our history books. I remember to see pictures of St. Joan of Arc and St. Michael, St. Catherine, and St. Margaret on nonreligious books. I did not know that later in my life I will become a teacher in the new world much less that religious history will be banned worldwide in educational textbooks. The world is wrong about education and separation of religious beliefs and government. This is why so many countries are at war. Pope Leo the XIV new that and is in his way to change the world by acknowledge other faiths and confessions that have shaped the world history. In essence GOD is not an invention of humans but a reality. Love is the only divine truth on earth everything else is obsolete.
