Why is he speaking on what looks like a bus or airplane?
Church budget is down these days, gotta save a few bucks
It’s like when the president does a press briefing on Air Force One
Is the Pope as in-flight entertainment not good enough for you? You sound like a Cathar.
Pope: What is the DEEal with airplane food? God made manah fall from the Heavens and we can’t even bring up a decent steak, am I right? Lent is over fellas, don’t make me break out the communion wafers
The airline version of The Pope is weird cause they dub ovwr the swears
the edited-out sex scenes raise more questions than answers tbh
“TradCaths” are probably raging.
Hilarious how they either don’t believe in or sometimes don’t even know one of Catholicism’s main tenants, Papal supremacy.
Technically that only applies to statements made ex cathedra, the pope can say whatever he wants on and Catholics can disagree with him, so long as he’s not sitting on his special chair.
He’s only God’s handpicked representative on Earth when he’s on his special chair, otherwise he’s just a sparkling priest
tbf I’ll believe anything anyone says if they’re sitting on this bad boy
How does he get on?
What I wanna know is why Games Workshop hasn’t sued the Catholic Church for so blatantly ripping off Warhammer 40k.

On one hand that sounds like hilarious cope, on the other hand it sounds exactly like the kind of arcane rules the Catholic Church would have.
ex cathedra literally means “out [from] the chair” but it’s a figurative statement that just means “speaking as the holder of this position rather than as a private individual”
Wait so a cathedral is just a church with a big chair for like official church statements?
Cathedrals are named for having such chairs, yes.
“official acts” by a president vs personal acts
He also came out and said both presidential candidates fucking suck.
The catholic pendulum on hexbear once more swings towards “Pope’s okay”. Can’t wait to see what news comes when it swings the other direction
Miiiiight be important to note that the pope doesn’t like Kamala because he thinks abortion is murder
No it’s the Palestinian genocide bit
Well, that’s not what the pope is saying when people ask him about it
Asked by CBS News what he would advise a Catholic voter forced to choose between a candidate who backs abortion rights and one who has said he would have 11 million migrants deported, the pope said: “They are both against life — the one who throws away migrants and the one who kills children.”
Francis also reiterated the Catholic Church’s position that abortion is murder.
“Whether you like the word or not, it is a killing,” he said. “It is an assassination, and on this we should be clear.”
the pope is better on immigration than the dems
Pope’s just mad he’s losing his Vatican Candidate in January.
no he’s only okay for a pope, a bar which is in hell
I am in my mid thirties and every pope within my lifetime has been the woke Pope and it has never been true, I’m not falling for this shit and neither should anybody else
agreed but this site can be really fuckin weird about catholicism. it and traditional english peasant cuisine seem to inspire some of the weirdest struggle sessions.
How much worse than contemporary br*tish cuisine can it possibly be
I can only speak for myself, but I grew up evangelical and the worst bigots I knew hated Catholics for being mostly non-white and constantly implied that they were cryptopagans who worshipped saints.
Anti-Catholic (as opposed to general anti-religious, or even anti-Christian) sentiment will probably always trip my “This person might be a radical right wing prosperity gospelist” alarms.
ya definitely not saying protestants or orthodox are any better in the vast majority of cases and I’m unfortunately also familiar with those know-nothing type brainworms. I’m also unfortunately familiar with the many, many catholics, many white but by no means all, who really suck so you can comfortably put me in the anti religion camp, most especially the christian formations but I’m generally not in love with any universalizing religion w socially conservative characteristics especially when not under the influence of a Party in power a la Cuba
The best antichrist of my lifetime
Never forget that the pope is head of a worldwide child abuse ring with national sovereignty.
Francis is like Socdem, but he doesn’t have much longer to live, let’s see who the next pope is. Colossal religious institutions like the Catholic Church, with its immense wealth and a strong conservative wing, should not be allowed a foothold in any Socialist country.
They are just letting him say stuff, huh
CIA too washed these days to get past the Swiss Guard
Plus Catholic Joe Biden knows he’s gonna die soon so he figues he has a better shot of getting into heaven if he doesn’t try to influence the Pope.
Hexbear Catholic caucus is eating good as always.
I love it, because I know some incredibly awful catholic weirdos and it gives me joy he pisses them off.
Never missed.
“China is a country”
:pope::degaulle:
📣 he’s still transphobic!
So is Xi Xinping
I don’t think so

okay?
Point is that the pope is probably more chill with how China handles the issue than how liberal democracies do. It’s weird
Is Xi explicitly transphobic, or transphobic in more of a “Say nothing about trans people and do nothing to improve their rights” way?
I don’t think he’s personally said anything about trans people but China has been improving wrt trans rights and most of the things reported on as “anti-LGBTQ+ crackdowns” in China have been nonsense.
Is he moonlighting as a flight attendant?

Dope Francis?
the catholic church is trying to get into the growing Christian population in China
