I'm curious why you say it makes him a terrible Pope. A lot of Catholics thinks he is great too. Some don't. It's all subjective really isn't it?
The Cardinals elect the Pope they want to set the direction of the Church. So, by definition he's the best Pope.
Well it's kind of like this. Imagine you hate watching football, right? But then you watched a football game and you loved it.
If someone who hates football loves a football game, then it's not a good game. It would have to be too fundamentally different from what people enjoy in football games to be a good football game.
So if atheists are crazy about a pope who is a religious figure, then, it's not a good pope, you know?
I love the Pope, but let's face it, he's just adhering to atheist values as much as possible while being the pope.
That's great for us, but it's not great for people who are not atheists, get it?
This might be dumbest shit ive read all week
You think the fucking pope is "adhering to atheist values"? What an interesting place the inside of your head must be.
You want to try that one again with your grown up pants on?
You wanna shut the fuck up and fuck the fuck off?
atheists and christians are like electrons and positrons. whenever they collide (such as in a football game) they instantly destroy one another
