Robert, I think 'bkc81' means John Paul I [Albino Luciani].  He was called the "Smiling Pope" but we didn't have any opportunity to see what he would have done had he lived as a pope more than the month that we had him.  What we do know about him was that at Vatican II, he seriously took reading and studying what was going on in the debates and in the theology being presented at the Council.  Here's what he stated:

"...everything I learned at the Gregorian [University] is useless now.  I have to become a student again.  Fortunately I have an African bishop as a neighbor in the bleaches in the council hall, who gives me the texts of the experts of the German bishops.  That way I can better prepare myself."

He was willing to learn new ideas---he might have been very good.
