Performative christians should get double hell.
Thats all of them though.
I think the pope is restoring something I lost a long time ago. So I will say protestants, but not all Christians.
Yeah, nothing performative at all about the chap in the robes and the funny hat chanting incantations in a dead language in an art gallery while swinging incense around the place.
Hard to hate the dude when he's on the right side of history.
I guess if we excuse his pedo priest shufflng past. Who hasn't tho amirite?
Again, not disagreeing with you.
But the current Chicagoan is doing a pretty bang up job.
Managed to avoid tripping on the bar.
No, fairly certain I cleared that hurdle. The next is up for debate though.
You cleared the hurdle?
I thought we were talking about The Pope™ ?
I am not the pope, nor am I religious in any way sense or form. But it feels good seeing honest faith.
I'm a lifelong disbeliever (I remember thinking how religion didn't make sense as early as 4 years old, when I quizzed my Dad on where God was, and why didn't the Gemini astronauts visit him when they were in Space), and I was never Catholic in any case, but this is the first Pope I've seen that was actually willing to stand up to the psychopaths. I'm never getting on board with his whole church scam, but I support anything that drives a wedge between MAGA and their most delusional supporters.
Fuck my it you're here too. I feel bad on my account. But you rock.
