Joseph Smith Jr. (1805–1844) was one of the most successful and controversial religious leaders of nineteenth-century America, publishing the Book of Mormon and starting what would become the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He built temples, founded a city-state in Illinois, ran for president, and married more than thirty women.

I will never forget the day Pope Francis gave his first address to the world. At that time, I had not eaten for three days because I had no money. It was around 9:00 PM in Tanzania when white smoke rose from the chimney of the Sistine Chapel, signaling that a new Pope had been chosen.
