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.
JD probably only converted because he thinks wearing cross necklaces are manly
The Wope
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.
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.
This reminds me of a comment I read a while back
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?

I saw this go by and didn’t really think about it. We both learned something from this. I think you’re trying to help the community, the community is telling you that it’s not. I’m not going to ban you, but this is a warning. Good intentions aren’t always good results.
Misgendering someone as an insult may hurt them a little, but it hurts the non-cis community a lot.
For what it’s worth, and maybe I’m naive, but I read that comment not about not meeting some criteria of what appears on a driver’s license… But instead rebuking the notion that JD has acted with the integrity required to achieve “manhood”.
English has really massacred the ability to clearly articulate concepts around biology, identifying as a boy or girl, and then having lived in such a way to have “ascended” to “manhood/womanhood”.
JD Vance is a boy if he says he’s a boy. Being a man isn’t so simple. I reject that he is a man.
Ignoring the bit where they call him trans as an insult…
Yeah re-reading that line, I think you’re right that they intended “trans” to mean “masqueradeding as”.
I agree with the sentiment, but you’re right, it’s not cool to use “trans” for that purpose. Thanks for poking me to more carefully consider how the word was used here.

I think they understood you were fighting fire with fire. What they were saying is that more people get burned from fires than just the people who set them.

I mean he is a couch-o-phile, that’s for sure.
Are couches male or female?
… No.
The answer to your question is ‘no’, lol.
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?
