One less pedo
Bring him back, take Trump instead
Rest in peace Pope Francis 🕯️
I fucking hate you Vance, this is your fault!
Yay!
Any signs of plutonium poisoning?
He was like man this guy sucks, I don’t want to live in a world where this guy has power, then dies. I feel the same dude…
Guys. Joe Biden is Catholic. The Vatican has an opportunity to do the funniest thing ever.
Gfdi. I’m not religious, but knowing that Catholics are going to choose a new Pope, I can only look forward to more bad news of comformity to godawful world news in the form of a shitty New Pope who inspires and empowers all the shitty people.
Great, one more thing to make the world even worse.
Pope is recovering;
-
meets JD Vance
-
dies a couple days later…
Hmm
Many people are asking “Did JD Vance have a hand in the Pope’s death?”
Isn’t it
-
JD Vance asks to meet Pope
-
Pope slights Vance, refuses to meet
-
Pope dies the next day ???
Very sus
-
Would YOU want to keep on living if you had to speak to JD Vance?
He died the very next day.
Hours later, even.
-
His last words: “Dear Father in heaven, that unsufferable man!”
JD Vance: “How long have you worked here?”
Is Francis really your name? What’s on your birth certificate?
“Have you said Thanks, even once?”
Looks like it’s time for another pope race. I would like to throw my hat in the ring. As a lapsed Catholic trans woman who’s never so much as visited a seminary, I know I’m an unorthodox choice. But maybe it’s time to mix things up. My central campaign planks? We’re going to bring back indulgences and try to make the Papal States a thing again. Also, expect skits and improv sessions to have a big place in Catholic mass in the future!
Your candidacy would put the Church in quite a predicament, for sure. They could either embrace a trans woman as a leader (confirming that there’s nothing wrong with trans people) or reject her for being a woman (therefore admitting that one can, in fact, change their gender).
Of course, this is a false dichotomy, but a good PR team could spin it as a human rights win either way.
Only guys can be Pope.
Hey, hey, hey… there’s always Pope Joan. ;)
This, in the Catholic Church, transwomen actually do count as women. Recent ruling, they’re against “Gender Ideology”, whatever the fuck that means, but make exceptions for transpeople due to Francis ruling gender dysphoria a geniune medical issue that is exempt from rules against whatever “Gender Ideology” is
But according to TERFs and fash, she is a guy though
So we should thank TERFs for having a trans women Pope? Watching TERFs meltdown over these would be hilarious.
I promise to spend the entire papacy dressed in dresses that look like they belong in the White Tower scenes in the Wheel of Time series.
Eh. Rules are arbitrary and can be changed.
You’d have to call uno reverse trans
Without going into spoilery details, the film Conclave raised a very interesting question about pope eligibility. Recommend checking it out, not just for the topical relevance but also simply because it’s a good movie.
Pretty sure the church doesn’t recognize trans people
Checkmate
athiestsCatholics.
The child in me kind of wishes he had passed on 4/20 Easter, but alas.
That being said, while I’m not religious I appreciate a lot (not all) of what this Pope has done. His Apostolic Exhortation on the Idolatry of Money, and the gross inequality wrought by capitalism is worth a read.
For the time he had, the distance he brought the Church is pretty impressive. I will go to my grave believing that organized religion does more harm than good, nothing they ever do will change my mind. That said, he really was an agent for positive change, especially compared to Darth Benedict, who preceded him.
Some gold from that document:
In this context, some people continue to defend trickle-down theories which assume that economic growth, encouraged by a free market, will inevitably succeed in bringing about greater justice and inclusiveness in the world. This opinion, which has never been confirmed by the facts, expresses a crude and naïve trust in the goodness of those wielding economic power and in the sacralized workings of the prevailing economic system.
Would be funny to make a quote collection titled “Who said this? Pope Francis or a socialist?”
Not to mention his stance against zio terrorism. That’s probably why he’s being replaced.
He’s being replaced because he dead yo.
Good pope tho.
I like the implication that they interrogated a dead body about its opinion on terrorism lmao
It wouldn’t be the first time!
oh I forgot about that, you win this comment section 😂
Ope. There goes the Pope.
