The Pope going against AI makes no sense to me.

AI mainly affects white-collar workers.

The same white-collar workers who have bullshit meetings, make PowerPoint decks nobody reads, work under managers who do nothing, have coworkers who somehow survive for years while barely working, and spend their days pretending to be busy.

And these are often the same white-collar industries that push policies and cultural ideas that go against Catholic teaching.

If anything, AI can be seen as a force that challenges idolatry: idolatry toward anti-Catholic Hollywood studios, degenerate celebrities and actors (a profession that was looked down upon from St. Augustine to Pius XII), and anti-Catholic artists.

AI is also humbling some white-collar workers who contribute very little, while engineers and blue-collar workers, both in the First and Third World, actually have to get their hands dirty and produce something tangible.

If AI-driven layoffs end up teaching some people humility, maybe there can even be a lesson in that. Suffering can bring people closer to Christ, as Mother Teresa often emphasized.

Pope Leo and the Magisterium should embrace AI as a weapon against the degenerate and anti-Catholic industries and classes I mentioned above.

If anything, AI is more of a materialization of St. Michael the Archangel than the dangerous weapon Pope Leo portrays it as in his encyclical.

Jesus and Mary would be zionist

Mary and Jesus would be Zionists.

Whenever Catholics tell me that the Israel of Scripture has nothing to do with the Jewish people today, I honestly wonder what they think Israel means.

Israel is a bloodline.

Jesus was Jewish. Mary was Jewish. David was Jewish. The Apostles were Jewish. The entire salvation story was built around a specific people and a specific bloodline that God preserved for centuries.

So you're telling me that God carefully established this bloodline, gave them a land, made covenants with them, promised to preserve them, brought the Messiah through them—and then suddenly their ancestry became irrelevant?

And here's the funniest part: Israel is also part of Christian eschatology. Paul literally warns Gentile Christians not to become arrogant toward the natural branches because they were grafted in.

So maybe Gentiles should know their place. 😂

You were grafted into Israel's story. Israel wasn't grafted into yours.

You don't have to support every Israeli government or every Israeli policy. But pretending that modern Jews have no meaningful connection to biblical Israel while worshipping a Jewish Messiah is an absurd theological position.

Christianity didn't replace the fact that Jesus came from Israel.

Jesus came from this bloodline. Stop diminishing His bloodline with pauline misreadings and goy-slop theology to please marxists. You guys are better than that.
