  1. Most devotees, and some who admire his pious approach to life, were quite happy to accept.
  2. Some famous figures, knowing how hot the pope is, used the occasion to remind everyone they've met him in person.
  3. Some took a lighter, but still friendly, approach.
  4. Others see greater lessons in how Papa Francis is running the Vatican.
  5. There were those, unsatisfied by the Catholic Church's history of abuse and its continued stance against gay marriage and women priests, who took a more critical approach. Most of those tweets were NSFW. 
  6. Finally, there are some who understand just how difficult his job can be.
