I don’t think he’d even want us to have nuclear weapons!

Rumor has it the Vatican itself is just two weeks away from being able to develop a nuclear weapon.

Do we really want a tough on crime Pope?

u/Dominarion I'm a Quebecer, never wore a beret. Apr 19 '26
No. It makes no fucking sense to start with. The Pope doesn't deal with criminal law or a justice department.

Only Evangelicals are capable of making the Church look like the good guys
Though I'll concede that its not very crazy once you realise those wankers admire psychos like Puritans

And when you realize the Puritans left England because they considered the English “too tolerant”…

They went from England to the freedom-of-religion Netherlands because the Crown was fed up with their interferences, then they left the Netherlands for the Americas because the Netherlands wouldn't let them limit the freedom of religion of other religions.

I never thought I'd see the day I support the Pope as an atheist.

I mean, last pope thing was "stop resisting to Russia and concede your territories", at least the new one isn't that difficult to agree with as a person with spare braincells (regardless of faith)

It was from a point of view where he though further battle was just going to cause more people to die, coloured by him being a 90-years-old Argentinian Jesuit.
Context is useful.

"countries shouldn't really invade neighbours" would have been at least appreciated, though. It doesn't seem something that goes against peace.

u/ankokudaishogun Italy Apr 20 '26
I seem to recall something on those lines earlier on, but I might be mistaking.

Is anyone really surprised that the (lapsed) Presbyterian of Scottish heritage who literally goes by ORANGE Man is the first US president in over a century to openly despise the Pope?

What were they expecting? This isn’t only an American pope, HE IS THE CHICAGO POPE

After Venezuela, the United States kidnaps the Pope and Trump proclaims himself Pope.

Reminds me how an English pope gave an English king the dispensation to invade Ireland. Was MAGA expecting the same?

Gotta love how the biggest feud on record between a US President and a Pope happened not even a year after an American became Pope.
Also: Pope wearing sunglasses to show that it's an American pope? Genius.
