Archbishop of New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan was elated after Pope Francis's speech in Rome saying the Pope reminds him of Jesus.

Speaking with George Stephanopoulos on ABC's This Week, Cardinal Dolan said the Pope should remind others of Jesus because that is his job. The Pope's message was a response to the synod's "no vote" surrounding homosexuality, marriage, and divorce saying, "God is not afraid of new things."

Stephanopoulos called the Pope's message "evolution not revolution." Dolan agreed.

Comparing the Pope to Jesus, Dolan said that Pope Francis is always looking out for the people on both sides of the road and bringing them along for the walk.

Dolan said the Pope's speech was "nothing less than inspirational." Here is his entire statement:

Pope Francis never ceases to surprise us. And so just when you think you might have him figured out, he offers another fresh innovative way of looking. That talk to which you just referred at the close of the synod was nothing less than inspirational. He spoke from the heart. He spoke of the church. He spoke about himself as the Pope. And he challenged -- he challenged all of us. And it reminds me, George, of Jesus -- which he should, that's his job description, to remind us of Jesus -- always walking down the road and never forgetting the people on either side. Jesus always had kind of radar out for the people at the side of the road. That's what Pope Francis is doing for those who might stake out one position or another, he's walking right down the middle of the road and he's trying to bring everybody with him on that walk. He likes to use the word accompaniment, walking with them. The church needs to walk with people, keep them company, be next to them. He does that so well.
