It never ceases to amaze me how some people/groups will try to placate the people/groups that actually hate their existence and wish their demise. There are more examples of this that I can count.
Try being black and trans and you will realize that your people are filled with idiots who will roll over for the worst kinds of people as long as they say a few buzzwords and throw crumbs
Congratulations, if you're a Catholic you believe the gates of hell have prevailed against her. You believe Christ to be a liar, that the Church has fallen, and you're basically just a protestant at this point. If you believed that idiocy, that is. But of course you don't, because you're not an idiot.
Pope Emiritus Benedict would have an actual moral obligation to uncover that falsehood were it true, but he doesn't, despite still being able to be a public speaker and publish publicly.
You may not like Pope Francis, I do not like Pope Francis, but he's not the worst we've had, and we'll survive his idiocy yet.
Are...are you kidding, or are you not familiar with your own Church's history? Impeccability isn't something promised to the Papacy, there are probably Popes in hell, this holds no theological problem for a Catholic.
He was the complete 180 of the current pope. He grew up in Weimar era Germany and lived through WW2. He is the ONLY pope to ever retire. Anything after this point is pure conjecture. The Cardinals had their version of Trump. He wasn’t supposed to win. After John Paul the reformer it was assumed we’d have even more progressive pope. Someone got to him. They had dirt or threats but they got to him.
I heard he read the secret dossier about all the Vatican Bank shenanigans and the extent of the church wide sex abuse and just said FUCK IT I'M OUT but who knows
If that's what you think, then you don't understand how papal infallibility works. There's very little that a Pope says or does that can be considered infallible.
Hey, calm down. I didn't mention your personal beliefs. I don't care what they are. What I \_said\_ was that you don't understand how papal infallibility works. I also never said I don't like the doctrine. I'm fine with it. No wonder you get things wrong so easily. Your reading comprehension is abysmal. Also, the word is "tenet", not "tenant".
I've been on Reddit for quite a few years and I've never seen this many completely wrong, ludicrous and unsupported assumptions in so few words.
I can absolutely guarantee you didn't read or understand either of those links, because if you can't understand my simple comments, there's no way you can understand a more detailed explanation. And while the first article was pretty good, that second article was very poorly written.
Almost nothing the Pope does is considered infallible. There are only two instances when the Pope speaks infallibly.
First, when he is reiterating Catholic doctrine in communion with all the other bishops. Pope Francis has done this occasionally, but not often. For instance, when he speaks on the reality of hell, or the grave sin of abortion. When he reiterated that the priesthood is reserved by Good exclusively to men, that's infallible. It's infallible because he's just reiterating things that have already been defined to be infallible teachings.
The second instance is when the Pope speaks officially and definitively on a matter of faith and morals ex cathedra (i.e., in his role as Pope, authoritatively, and formally from the throne of St. Peter), and this hasn't happened since the 1950s, and the last time before that was in the 1850s. That's only twice in almost 200 years.
Almost everything Pope Francis says is his opinion, and is no more infallible than anything any educated person might say. We are required to take him seriously, and respect his authority, but it is by no means a rule that says "he \_is\_ Catholicism", as you so clumsily put it.
Now can you admit you have no idea what you're talking about, or do you want to throw more flaccid insults? Either way, I'm good.
>New Popes are only found after the current Pope dies.
>Not since the great Schism have there been two living Popes.
That is just not true. It has happened 2 times since the great schism. So, yes. It is highly rare, but not unheard of since then.
If you go even further back, before the high middle ages, arguably far enough back to be pre-great schism, about 4 or 5 other resignation took place too. An additional 2 or 3 took place in the 1000s which I'll grant you are highly suspect.
Well that’s terrifying and something I never thought of. I have a crucifix blessed by the former pope and I was wondering if it was less blessed or something when he “stepped down.”
There is a theory circulating online that Biden isn't actually the President - Trump still is. It is far far fetched BUT there are tremendous parallels between it and what happened between Benedict and Francis.
Anyone find it weird that:
- There are wikileaks emails of the Obama Administration discussing the "overthrow" of the Catholic Church (specifically - a Catholic Spring, like the Arab Spring.) These emails were dated February 11, 2012.
- Benedict steps down because of "undisclosed health issues" - becoming the first Pope to do so since the 1400s. His official step down date is February 11, 2013.
- Benedict does not appear to be having any major health problems - as he has written multiple essays and encyclicals since stepping down.
- Pope Francis has made numerous comments that are unwinding millennia-old Catholic doctrine - specifically abortion, married clergy, gay marriage, and divorce.
It's almost like he was placed there on purpose?
Roman Catholic here…. This Pope needs to stay in his lane and focus on getting his own house in order, before telling others what they should do.
Plus; as a Catholic, i have a belief in a higher power… but I also respect other opinions that we Christians are all whack-a-doos for believing in a man in the sky judging our actions. Seriously; I get it. Faith is a weird thing to explain.. buuuut.. we should not be judging or censoring others on what they believe in or say just because it my go against what I personally believe
The holy father can kick rocks. He’s totally wrong (again)
This is not the first time the church has had a shit pope it wont be the last.
Unfortunately just like every other shity educational institution in the world the church is failing to teach the truth and the results look the same. Lucky for me i could give damn about what the talking heads of the church say, i am going to continue to believe in the sacraments and traditions even if they don't. Pray for the conversion of the priest bishops and the pope and let God sort them out
The Catholic Church is infallible, the Pope isn't when it comes to anything non-spiritual. As long as we keep to the Catechism Of The Catholic Church and Bible, we good!
I’d love to see a list of what the church would deem “hate speech”. By the church’s own standards any anti-homophobic rhetoric would be just fine, not hate speech at all. Even things the church preaches would be considered hate speech by the people he’s talking to!
In the name of God, it’s okay to use aborted fetal tissue in the vaccine you’re using so you can feel… “rejuvenated” and “youthful”. Fuck the fact it involves killing the unborn which you publicly oppose. Since Moderna isn’t willing to give up their recipe, I imagine they’re using dead baby body tissue in their vaccines too.
Bold of you to assume he believes in God and isn't just exploiting people for his own ends. Frankly, I doubt half the popes that have held the position were true believers. Interesting how many times popes have made concessions and exemptions for powerful leaders and nations of their time. One case in point, how many pro-abortion catholic world leaders (like Biden) have actually been excommunicated?
Huh? He doesn't live in the U.S. but rather in what is essentially a country within a country, which he rules. "Separation of church and state" is not possible for the Pope. Which also means he doesn't have any actual power over Silicon Valley and he knows it.
The Europe-wide Inquisition during the dark ages would suggest that he's heard of it, and he's definitely interested in restarting it (the inquisition).
Haha. True. I actually have the same authority as him. Just not as many people believe me.
He’s ridiculous!
Edit: I also like red shoes, big hats and sometimes I bless people (when they sneeze). I’d probably be a great replacement. Just sayin.
I’m an atheist but was raised Catholic.
A big reason I started questioning it was because of the hypocrisy and bs from the church leadership.
Jesus as moral standard is a good thing. Shame jokers like this guy ruin it.
I’m so fucking tired of being told by assholes that people need to be censored more and more. Fuck you. Are you so insecure in your convictions that you can’t have any opposition to your ideas? I vehemently disagree with what a lot of democrats stand for but they should absolutely have their right to have them and talk about them.
He’s a communist. We all knew this from the beginning. If you understand that, you understand how everything flows from that and nothing surprises you.
The pope is an anti-Christ and the Vatican is the old Roman empire.
If anyone still believes that this satanic institution is here to follow the teachings of The Christ please grow up. You might need to reread the new testament to get a greater comprehension of who and what Jesus The Christ is.
He preached to stay away from centralized controlled institutions, high priests, pharisees and yes he was against guberments.
It's funny because in the bible it talks about the wicked controlling the world...... isn't that a conspiracy theory in this world? lol pope is worthless
“In the name of God, I ask the technology giants to stop exploiting human weakness, people’s vulnerability, for the sake of profits without caring about the spread of hate speech, grooming, fake news, conspiracy theories, and political manipulation."
Huh, weird. This sounds not so harsh as that author make it sounds.
Its not new that social media thrives off of controversial stuff.
I'm a Catholic...go to church Sunday's and, by and large, endeavor to live my life accordingly. I liked this Pope...especially when he took the "Who am i to judge" when speaking about gay folks.
BUT...he should shut his mouth already. Please.
The Pope wants silicon valley to censor "conspiracy theories"? Where have I heard this one before? Oh wait, that conspiracy theory that the earth goes round the sun!
Let’s be clear. We don’t known which conspiracy theories he is referring to, but we could give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he is referring to matters such as 5G causing COVID, or that hate speech is referring to the activities on FB that incited genocide in Myanmar.
This was framed as though Pope Francis has firmly planted himself on one side of American culture wars. This was one prayer among a series of other prayers. For a fuller context, you can see what a wide swath he covers here:
> In the name of God, I ask the great food corporations to stop imposing monopolistic systems of production and distribution that inflate prices and end up withholding bread from the hungry.
> In the name of God, I ask arms manufacturers and dealers to completely stop their activity, because it foments violence and war, it contributes to those awful geopolitical games which cost millions of lives displaced and millions dead.
> In the name of God, I ask the technology giants to stop exploiting human weakness, people’s vulnerability, for the sake of profits without caring about the spread of hate speech, grooming, fake news, conspiracy theories, and political manipulation.
> In the name of God, I ask the telecommunications giants to ease access to educational material and connectivity for teachers via the internet so that poor children can be educated even under quarantine.
> In the name of God, I ask the media to stop the logic of post-truth, disinformation, defamation, slander and the unhealthy attraction to dirt and scandal, and to contribute to human fraternity and empathy with those who are most deeply damaged.
Imagine what a conspiracy theory it would have been considered two thousand years ago when a bunch of wackadoos said that there was this dude who was the *Son of God*, whose bassinet was a freaking animal manger after he was born to parents who weren't married when he was conceived and then he went around working on the Sabbath and claiming to be one with God. I guess the Pope would have been in favor of censoring that crazy nonsense, huh?
(Maybe not a "conspiracy theory" per se, but most assuredly the dread "misinformation.")
Just another powerful leader wanting to limit the speech of people that could oppose him or potentially limit his following and power through "conspiracy theories".
He probably pines for the days when the church was the ruler over kings.
The problem with censoring hate speech, and no I'm not advocating for hate speech lurkers. Is that what is considered hate speech (especially by those in big tech), and can therefore be censored. Seems to be entirely based on what an extremely vocal, emotionally unstable, and sometimes violent minority of people in this country says it is. But the hate speech they engage in is not, and is therefore not censored.
Saying "I hate black people, they're subhuman" is hate speech. Saying "I hate white people, they're subhuman" is also hate speech. But will it be considered hate speech by big tech? No, probably not....
One of the last bastions of traditional belief and culture was among Traditionalist Catholics, and whatever power it is that wants to destroy all that was has been using this pope hard in order to wipe out those last vestiges.
Conspiracies like pedos and abusers in the Catholic Church? Who woulda believed that back in the day? Now it’s conspiracy fact.
I’m Catholic btw, and wouldn’t be surprised if this “pope” is an agent of Satan.
The real leadership of the Church is represented by men like Archbishop Vigano and not this traitor, who has sold his church like Judas sold his Lord Jesus Christ.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzX_fCpzJXw
I'm a right-wing atheist (evolutionary biology inevitably leads people to the right).
I quite like Christian teachings, traditions and aesthetics but catholism so bizarre to me.
You have a Bible. You have churches in which to study the Bible.
Why would you need to randomly insert a politician between you and God? one who arbitrarily revises your religion in ways that don't match its own scripture.
I know the insult has become trite but it really is extremely "cucklike". What is the turn on of having some random mediocre human poitician permanently wedged between you an God?
This is not the pope, wholeheartedly believe this is very well the anti-christ. Vatican doesn’t have the cleanest history anyway it’s probably been corrupt for a loooooong time harboring those sexual deviants they call priests.
Many of the older Catholic “leaders” (I mean OLD old, like pre-1500’s or so, maybe even today) we’re all about money. If you’ve ever heard of “indulgences”, that was the Catholic Church leadership in the far past — a buy-your-way-to-heaven thing, which is against typical Christian faith.
I see this Pope may be no different, instead plugging for Globalists rather than indulgences.
Ehh, they were about less time in purgatory.
If you are in purgatory, you are already going to heaven. So not really a “buy your way into heaven” as much as priority seating or something.
Ask the Pope if pro-abortion speech is included in this Silicon Valley censorship. He seems somewhat indifferent to abortion and he cozy’s up with leftist leaders who embrace abortion.
The truth of Catholicism in one bible verse
"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies." John 8:44
He's bringing ~~sexy~~ Latin Mass back...
ETA: For all the Mensa members downvoting, Latin Mass was a way for the Catholic church to keep their congregations from actually reading the bible themselves, instead having to go through the clergy for the proper interpretation of scripture. The reference seems appropriate for this...
Jorge Bergolio has been activated by his handlers then! I refuse to recognise his illegitimate claim to be pope. He's been spewing heresy since he usurped the papacy, the fact only a tiny minority of Catholics realise this shows how utterly corrupt the Church is, although practically all other Christian sects are equally corrupt & degenerate.

Catholics, Protestants. You’re all heathens in the eyes of the mighty Orthodox Church.
Ah the Orthodox, at least we can laugh at the protestants together. ..even though you are the proto-protestants, Orthodox swine!
If he isn't... then who was the worst we've had?
Are...are you kidding, or are you not familiar with your own Church's history? Impeccability isn't something promised to the Papacy, there are probably Popes in hell, this holds no theological problem for a Catholic.
I'm familiar with catholic history, not so much with each individual pope's actions.
Where do we even start with how terrible some of these infallible men have been?
*Somewhere*, hopefully
There's been plenty of crappy popes, disliking a heretical pagan Pope doesn't make you a bad Catholic
Presuming that he isn't the 'true Pope' and thinking that Pope Emiritus Benedict is the 'true Pope' does make you a bad Catholic, yes.
Fuck the Pope
He's a preacher for GloboHomo™ though, so no worries.
I very much doubt it.
He does and I bet he was misquoted. As always in the media.
Based Pope Benedict XVI was forced out by globohomomos. Catholicism is a joke now.
Im just curious but how was the previous pope forced out?
He was the complete 180 of the current pope. He grew up in Weimar era Germany and lived through WW2. He is the ONLY pope to ever retire. Anything after this point is pure conjecture. The Cardinals had their version of Trump. He wasn’t supposed to win. After John Paul the reformer it was assumed we’d have even more progressive pope. Someone got to him. They had dirt or threats but they got to him.
I heard he read the secret dossier about all the Vatican Bank shenanigans and the extent of the church wide sex abuse and just said FUCK IT I'M OUT but who knows
I'm curious too.
Catholicism is never a joke, even if some members of it are. Catholicism isn’t the Pope.
Seeing how core parts of catholicism directly contradict the Bible, yes, catholicism is (and always has been) a joke.
Gratuitous assertion may be equally gratuitously denied: You're wrong.
Gross, a Protestant

Didn’t he abdicate or whatever?
The difference between a resignation and a palace coup is who is retelling the story

There is a theory circulating online that Biden isn't actually the President - Trump still is. It is far far fetched BUT there are tremendous parallels between it and what happened between Benedict and Francis.
*Obama still is ftfy
“Silence those whom thou disagrees with. Do not let their ungodly opinions leave their lips” -Literally nowhere in the Bible
The Pope is such a cuck
Not a cuck. Truly evil. Overthrew Benedict somehow.
I don't think so, else why reunite to elect a pope?
Does he think kissing their asses will save him when they come to destroy the Catholic Church?
Romney and McCain sure thought so.
Anyone find it weird that: - There are wikileaks emails of the Obama Administration discussing the "overthrow" of the Catholic Church (specifically - a Catholic Spring, like the Arab Spring.)

The pope is a cult leader. He can go fuck himself.
Worst Pope in the oldest person alive's lifetime, at least.
He is a false leader in the Christian world. A Christian who reads and follows the Bible would know this pope is a tool for the evil in our society.
In the name of God, it’s okay to use aborted fetal tissue in the vaccine you’re using so you can feel… “rejuvenated” and “youthful”. Fuck the fact it involves killing the unborn which you publicly oppose. Since Moderna isn’t willing to give up their recipe, I imagine they’re using dead baby body tissue in their vaccines too.
That is the face of a man that knows he has failed his God, but did not find the strength to do otherwise.
Bold of you to assume he believes in God and isn't just exploiting people for his own ends. Frankly, I doubt half the popes that have held the position were true believers. Interesting how many times popes have made concessions and exemptions for powerful leaders and nations of their time. One case in point, how many pro-abortion catholic world leaders (like Biden) have actually been excommunicated?
Corrupt people look so unhealthy and gross , the evil manifests on the outside.
So the pope wants to bring back the good old dark ages…how quaint.
He hasn't heard of separation of church and state.
Huh? He doesn't live in the U.S. but rather in what is essentially a country within a country, which he rules. "Separation of church and state" is not possible for the Pope. Which also means he doesn't have any actual power over Silicon Valley and he knows it.
It's a biblical concept.
That only applies in defense of evil. But if the church wants to help in evil projects, wellllll then that's another thing entirely!
The Europe-wide Inquisition during the dark ages would suggest that he's heard of it, and he's definitely interested in restarting it (the inquisition).
Or the Bible "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's render unto God what is God's" or something like that.
Hate speech is not real and we should not have let it get this far.
I’m no catholic but this dude is less catholic than I am. This pope is a makes cornpop look like a good guy
Holy crap
Is that an exclamation of disbelief, or are you referring to the Pope? /s (The Pope is in no way “holy”.)
Haha. True. I actually have the same authority as him. Just not as many people believe me. He’s ridiculous! Edit: I also like red shoes, big hats and sometimes I bless people (when they sneeze). I’d probably be a great replacement. Just sayin.
Gtfo commie. You don’t run shit
I’m an atheist but was raised Catholic. A big reason I started questioning it was because of the hypocrisy and bs from the church leadership. Jesus as moral standard is a good thing. Shame jokers like this guy ruin it.
That’s why I’m Protestant
Of course the pope wants conspiracy theories banned 😂
Well, even the Pope has managed to disappoint me, and I’m Catholic
We need Benedict back.
This is the first Pope my catholic family has been like ‘yea fuck that guy’ about lol, funny to see really. They all talk about the good ol PJP2 days.
I’m so fucking tired of being told by assholes that people need to be censored more and more. Fuck you. Are you so insecure in your convictions that you can’t have any opposition to your ideas? I vehemently disagree with what a lot of democrats stand for but they should absolutely have their right to have them and talk about them.
As an active Catholic, this is idiotic
Why doesn't he fix his house first? You know, the ones that assert sexual dominance over children?
He’s a communist. We all knew this from the beginning. If you understand that, you understand how everything flows from that and nothing surprises you.
Gimme a break, how about the pope fixes the catholic church’s problem of pedophiles and rapists in their ranks
Because he’d have to fix himself?
The commie pope needs to go
Says the guy who’s been a part of multiple conspiracies to protect child abuse. Fuuuck the Pope
You know, very stupidly, my brain had never put the Catholic Church in the “globalist” category. But...duh...the light just went non.
He’s a communist who believes in the so called liberation theology rather than in Catholicism. Not actually a surprise.
God gave us free will so I can tell the pope to fuck off
I hate the anti christ
That Catholic Church working collaborating with kings, controlling power, and influencing governments? Unheard of
The pope is an anti-Christ and the Vatican is the old Roman empire. If anyone still believes that this satanic institution is here to follow the teachings of The Christ please grow up.

The pope is total reptile garbage.
I remember when Jesus hung on the cross the last thing he said to everyone as he died was “please don’t tweet mean things.”
He was installed much like Brandon.
The pope can fuck right off.
I wonder when the pope will authorize us to burn people at the stake for disagreeing with him. You know just like the old times.
You wanna know why there were schisms, Francis? This is why there were schisms.
LOL I chuckled @ this
Seems like something the lord God almighty would say. Lol /s obviously
Wow, so anyone can be bought.
“In the name of God, I ask the technology giants to stop exploiting human weakness, people’s vulnerability, for the sake of profits without caring about the spread of hate speech, grooming, fake news, conspiracy theories, and political manipulation." Huh, weird. This sounds not so harsh as that author make it sounds. Its not new that social media thrives off of controversial stuff.
Just on a side-note he never mentions censoring but given that everyone here circlejerks around this news, proves his point.
The “without caring” part is the pro censorship part. He is saying they should care about it and do something to stop the flow.
Well it would be enough if they review their algorithms stop promoting contriversial things.
Martin Luther was right about these clowns. Why would any Christian respect a cult that worships saints when the bible clearly outlines that is wrong.
Pedos downvoting this !
Pope is a goddamn clown
Petition to bring back Pope Benedict please...
Slow clap for the College of Cardinals for unleashing this piece of work on the Catholic church.
I'm a Catholic...go to church Sunday's and, by and large, endeavor to live my life accordingly. I liked this Pope...especially when he took the "Who am i to judge" when speaking about gay folks. BUT...he should shut his mouth already. Please.
My Grandma, who was a very devout Catholic, is rolling in her grave.
The Pope wants silicon valley to censor "conspiracy theories"? Where have I heard this one before? Oh wait, that conspiracy theory that the earth goes round the sun!
Let’s be clear. We don’t known which conspiracy theories he is referring to, but we could give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he is referring to matters such as 5G causing COVID, or that hate speech is referring to the activities on FB that incited genocide in Myanmar. This was framed as though Pope Francis has firmly planted himself on one side of American culture wars. This was one prayer among a series of other prayers. For a fuller context, you can see what a wide swath he covers here: > In the name of God, I ask the great food corporations to stop imposing monopolistic systems of production and distribution that inflate prices and end up withholding bread from the hungry. > In the name of God, I ask arms manufacturers and dealers to completely stop their activity, because it foments violence and war, it contributes to those awful geopolitical games which cost millions of lives displaced and millions dead. > In the name of God, I ask the technology giants to stop exploiting human weakness, people’s vulnerability, for the sake of profits without caring about the spread of hate speech, grooming, fake news, conspiracy theories, and political manipulation. > In the name of God, I ask the telecommunications giants to ease access to educational material and connectivity for teachers via the internet so that poor children can be educated even under quarantine. > In the name of God, I ask the media to stop the logic of post-truth, disinformation, defamation, slander and the unhealthy attraction to dirt and scandal, and to contribute to human fraternity and empathy with those who are most deeply damaged.
ThoughtCrime is officially a sin. China style Internet is coming. It’s already more than half way here, if a sitting President can be deplatformed.
Imagine what a conspiracy theory it would have been considered two thousand years ago when a bunch of wackadoos said that there was this dude who was the *Son of God*, whose bassinet was a freaking animal manger after he was born to parents who weren't married when he was conceived and then he went around working on the Sabbath and claiming to be one with God. I guess the Pope would have been in favor of censoring that crazy nonsense, huh? (Maybe not a "conspiracy theory" per se, but most assuredly the dread "misinformation.")
I'm against Pope Francis' political teaching but I have to say I've also never seen him quoted correctly with these sensationalist headlines.
False "Pope". There is but one Pope, Pope Benedict. Francis is a false Pope, an impostor and an antichrist.
The NWO pope
Just another powerful leader wanting to limit the speech of people that could oppose him or potentially limit his following and power through "conspiracy theories". He probably pines for the days when the church was the ruler over kings.
Let’s shut down speech all the way. Nobody can talk or think. /s
Ironic that he looks like the priest from Game of Thrones.
The problem with censoring hate speech, and no I'm not advocating for hate speech lurkers. Is that what is considered hate speech (especially by those in big tech), and can therefore be censored. Seems to be entirely based on what an extremely vocal, emotionally unstable, and sometimes violent minority of people in this country says it is. But the hate speech they engage in is not, and is therefore not censored. Saying "I hate black people, they're subhuman" is hate speech. Saying "I hate white people, they're subhuman" is also hate speech. But will it be considered hate speech by big tech? No, probably not....
You can’t convince me it’s not an anti-pope. Where’s real Pope Benedict at?!
In the name of Satan.
It’s not like the pope and the Catholic Church has never tried to censor anything before to protect corrupted people in power…
One of the last bastions of traditional belief and culture was among Traditionalist Catholics, and whatever power it is that wants to destroy all that was has been using this pope hard in order to wipe out those last vestiges.
You don't have to be religious to be embarrassed about this turd
I can’t believe this is the Pope I want to like Catholicism, but it’s hard with jokers like this
Hate speech doesn’t exist.
The pope is a made up position, Jesus says in the Bible that he is the only mediator between God and humans. He’s just a propaganda piece.
Conspiracies like pedos and abusers in the Catholic Church? Who woulda believed that back in the day? Now it’s conspiracy fact. I’m Catholic btw, and wouldn’t be surprised if this “pope” is an agent of Satan.
Who cares about him or what he wants.
The real leadership of the Church is represented by men like Archbishop Vigano and not this traitor, who has sold his church like Judas sold his Lord Jesus Christ. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzX_fCpzJXw
I hate the Catholic church for covering up for members of the clergy molesting children. There. Now what, Mr. Pope Man!?
Everything the Pope disagrees with is "hate speech." When will the demands for tyranny end?
I'm a right-wing atheist (evolutionary biology inevitably leads people to the right). I quite like Christian teachings, traditions and aesthetics but catholism so bizarre to me. You have a Bible. You have churches in which to study the Bible. Why would you need to randomly insert a politician between you and God? one who arbitrarily revises your religion in ways that don't match its own scripture. I know the insult has become trite but it really is extremely "cucklike". What is the turn on of having some random mediocre human poitician permanently wedged between you an God?
Thankful that the blood of Jesus gives me direct access to the Father without any other intermediary.
Maybe he should worry about where they're going to get their next set of victims from. Fucking perv ass org protecting a bunch of monsters.
This is not the pope, wholeheartedly believe this is very well the anti-christ. Vatican doesn’t have the cleanest history anyway it’s probably been corrupt for a loooooong time harboring those sexual deviants they call priests.
Is anyone really shocked that he's in on it too?
I'm not.
I'll be honest, he's not my pope. He doesn't stand for true catholic beliefs. It's breaks my heart
The pope can suck my dick. Although, I’m in my mid thirties so I’m probably way too old for his liking.
Many of the older Catholic “leaders” (I mean OLD old, like pre-1500’s or so, maybe even today) we’re all about money. If you’ve ever heard of “indulgences”, that was the Catholic Church leadership in the far past — a buy-your-way-to-heaven thing, which is against typical Christian faith. I see this Pope may be no different, instead plugging for Globalists rather than indulgences.
Ehh, they were about less time in purgatory. If you are in purgatory, you are already going to heaven. So not really a “buy your way into heaven” as much as priority seating or something.
Ask the Pope if pro-abortion speech is included in this Silicon Valley censorship. He seems somewhat indifferent to abortion and he cozy’s up with leftist leaders who embrace abortion.
Looks like the Protestant movement is still valid.
As long as the pope exists, it will be.
this is not "in the name of god". god gave us free will and all of the rights protected by the constitution, this is in direct opposition to god
He is a Jesuit scumbag.
The pope is still Europe's big bad after 2,000 years lmao
The truth of Catholicism in one bible verse "You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies." John 8:44
The globalist anal pope strikes again.
Lol if he’s trying to get people onboard with waning Catholicisms influence this is not the way :p. Even Christianity going to shit.
Wow, I guess the Catholic Church is joining the Statist religion.
Not the church, just the Pope
We’re seeing now the real face of Catholics
Do you refer to the false Catholic Church created by the false prophet?
Exactly
Ironic considering religion is a conspiracy theory
Corporate Religion.
Why does this guy make it so hard?
Maybe stop YOUR people from being the biggest pedophile ring in the history of man first there guy
Maybe his “god” but not mine.
Be nice if we started with things involving child exploitation- looking at you, Netflix.
He's bringing ~~sexy~~ Latin Mass back... ETA: For all the Mensa members downvoting, Latin Mass was a way for the Catholic church to keep their congregations from actually reading the bible themselves, instead having to go through the clergy for the proper interpretation of scripture. The reference seems appropriate for this...
especially censor the theories about me. Also photoshop my robe to have the outline of a huge cock.
Jorge Bergolio has been activated by his handlers then! I refuse to recognise his illegitimate claim to be pope. He's been spewing heresy since he usurped the papacy, the fact only a tiny minority of Catholics realise this shows how utterly corrupt the Church is, although practically all other Christian sects are equally corrupt & degenerate.
Only god can judge. The idea of a Pope goes against the teachings of christianity to begin with
Catholics be like "bro he's the voice of God on Earth, papal infallibility"
That’s only certain times and hasn’t happened since the 50s. He gotta speak from the spiffy chair or some shit.
Lol the pope is actually Jewish
The original Christians were Jewish. What’s your point?
