it's certainly hard to argue against the idea that anyone interested in studying religious writings should familiarize themselves with latin.

I feel dumb here in Rome, and I probably satisfy, quite well, the stereotype of the stupid American. There are many Italians and Europeans here that know English as either their second or third or xth language, but all I know is English (I have picked up some italian, but not nearly as much as they have picked up English.
On a side note, after the audience the Pope selected 15 new Cardinals!
