Not only are Jesus and the Father NOT obscured by this - they are exalted.
Yes, in the traditional fashion, as usual, I imagine. I take it you are of the Pope's religion.
Yes, the selected cardinals picked a new and American Pope today. I can see why you might be very excited. Enjoy and thanks for the remark.

“Who is Pope Leo XIV?

Pope Leo XIV (Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost) is widely viewed as moderate-to progressive in his theological and ecclesial orientation, closely aligned with the pastoral and reformist vision of Pope Francis.

Key Indicators of His Orientation …

Summary:

Pope Leo XIV is not a hardline liberal, but he is not conservative in the mold of Pope Benedict XVI or Cardinal Raymond Burke. He is best described as pastoral, reform-minded, and in continuity with the Francis papacy, embracing a moderate-progressive vision grounded in tradition, but open to renewal and inclusion.”

He's 69 years old. And he is the 267th Pope.
