National Catholic Reporter’s John L. Allen, Jr., has been in Argentina reporting on Pope Francis’ tenure there as Archbishop Jorge Mario Bergoglio. He says that, while there, he asked the following questions and found the best answers he could:

• Bergoglio’s response to two priests accused of sexual abuse, where critics have suggested he dropped the ball
• Why Argentina’s conference of Catholic bishops did not finish a set of sex abuse guidelines while he served as president
• Bergoglio’s relationship with Argentina’s military dictatorship as a Jesuit provincial during the 1970s
• Bergoglio’s attitude toward liberation theology
• Confusion over where Bergoglio stood on the question of civil unions during a contentious national debate on gay marriage in 2009 and 2010
