“Families have difficulties,” the Argentine pope continued, speaking in Spanish that was simultaneously translated by an aide. “In families, we quarrel. Sometimes plates can fly. Children bring headaches.”And, he added, playfully, “I won’t speak about mother-in-laws.”But, he said, “the most beautiful thing God made, says the Bible, was the family.”“Forgive the phrase,” he said, “but a family is like a factory of hope, a factory of resurrection.”God created the family, he said, and God was born into a family when Jesus was born to Mary.
