Re: the Dalai Lama's "innate Catholicism"
"In part, we can attribute the Dalai Lama's transformation to his innate Catholicism."
I am aware of very few people (I am one) who are in the habit of calling the Tibetan form of Buddhism, "Tibetan Catholicism" (because of its resemblance, in many respects, to the Roman form of Catholicism), but I believe the author of the article was not referring to either the Tibetan or the Roman form of Catholicism when he typed those words.
The "c" in "Catholicism" should not be capitalized.
