MODERATORS
The last time I remember having the same opinion as the pope was in 2003 against Bush Jr.'s war. If anyone will ever get me to become a catholic, I'm pretty sure it will be a US president.
It's still hitting me regularly that this pope is more reasonable than the US president.
The Catholic Church is more progressive than the US government.
No, I'm still not fully grasping it.

how is it still hitting you? the new guy's been pope less than a day
I'd argue the former pope was also more progressive than the current us gov.
I had to do a double take when someone said Vance is Catholic. He's a perfect evangelical, they love him, my evangelical culty parents love him so much it's gross, he does not seem Catholic.
The Wope
Im surprised all his hillbilly racist KKK friends didn't spontaneously combust once they heard about his conversion to Catholicism if he even did convert.
Mr Vance, have you said 'Thank You?' even once, for the personal spiritual guidance afforded to you by the Holy Pontiff?
People on the right are already Christian. This is just a psyop from the Trump government to convert more people to Christianity by thinking it's cool to be anti-Trump and Christian and still be in a position of power since the left dynamic is all about chasing power. Talk about 5D chess...
It's really not. The name Leo is associated with workers rights and human dignity, the guy has been directly calling out Vance and Trump, and the guy has strong ties to south America and was Francis's right hand man
The guy gave his speech in Italian and Spanish, not English. This is not a maga pope
Sorry but I have to ask: is this is a joke/sarcasm/satire/shitpost? It's written the way I'd write an over-analyzed view of the situation into a conspiracy shitpost. Judging by the up-to-down-vote ratio, it's hard to tell
Vast swathes of American 'Christians' don't consider Catholics to be Christian
What conscience?
