Many citizens were not Catholic, so the endorsement of the Pope would not have much influence

Two and a half hours after landing, before preparations began for the EVA, Aldrin radioed to Earth:

It is often commented that in social settings a person should avoid speaking about “religion and
politics.” The rationale behind this social taboo is that people tend to hold very strong emotional
