Pope Francis talking to papal nuncios advised them to eschew a 'bourgeois' style of life and reject the pursuit of worldly goods.
When choosing candidates to be bishops he urged them to avoid priests who were overly ambitious or showed "a princely psychology".
Will papal nunicos listen to him? What sort of priests have been appointed as bishops?
