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.
There’s some hope… part of Francis’ papacy involved him promoting more open-minded cardinals (who are the ones who choose popes) but we’ll see
We can hope.
But also: “papacy”? Sounds like a dynamic I need in my life (:
Im waiting for all the articles whe we he said something nice about gay people, so hes super progressive and we should be nice to the church cause they like us
Only to go to the comments where someone points out the next sentence he said was we are still going to hell
Pope is recovering;
-
meets JD Vance
-
dies a couple days later…
Hmm
He died the very next day.
Hours later, even.
Isn’t it ironic? Don’t ya think?

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!
Only guys can be Pope.
Eh. Rules are arbitrary and can be changed.
But according to TERFs and fash, she is a guy though
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.
You’d have to call uno reverse trans
Pretty sure the church doesn’t recognize trans people
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?”
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.
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
One Pope closer to “Peter the Roman”:
Boy asks Pope if his atheist father is in heaven.
Humility, patience, kindness, grace, and rationality. Would that we should have more leaders like him in the future.
Thank you for sharing this I’m as atheist as can be and I don’t really have a good view of the Catholic Church (or most churches) in general for obvious reasons but this pope was indeed better than the ones before him and that was a good moment from him
Okay, we need to know where every US government official was.
Right after the Pope told trump to have some compassion, a very coincidental timing…
🤔
“That was because he refused to welcome god-king JD vance in person!!! God punished the pope for his impertinence!!!”
- Some MAGA-Nut somewhere, probably
- Some MAGA-Nut somewhere, probably
probably closer to all of 'em

Trump only likes popes that don’t die at a similar age. In fact, had the pope become president and leading racist nazi asshole, he would be alive today.
My theory is that pope Francis when to see where the heck god is at. Cuz WTF man!
Man had to go see for himself if humanity really killed God
Good. I’m an indigenous person who has plenty of relatives who suffered under church run schools. This pope was nothing but a PR figurehead, down vote me all you want but my native brown ass is finished worshiping your popes and colonial religion.
I will take down votes with pride, it’s not new for me to get shit on for refusing to bow to this colonial, religious idiocy
I’m surprised there’s not a bigger anti-Christian movement among the various colonized cultures, to be honest.
Did Vance/Trump mafia kill him because the Pope upset him?
I’d love to make a joke about Russia sabotaging the pope election, but it wouldn’t even surprise me…
Friendly reminder: Progressive for a pope is still a transphobe who actively facilitated the rape of children. Not to mention all the horrific colonizer shit.
Rest in piss Frankie boy.
It’s like, he was pretty woke for a Pope, but, he was still a Pope.
I don’t think things would have worked out well had he gone full prog anyway. There’d be schisms for sure. Hell, Trump would probably declare an American Catholic Church and have himself elected Pope of it. (Shit, I really shouldn’t have given him that idea)
I don’t really know which way he personally felt. But even a Jesuit at the end of the day is a Catholic.
I hate that you’re right. Like, seeing how kind and compassionate the man was outwardly in the day to day and knowing of the horrors he and the church participated in and tried to hide… It makes me all the more sour to organized religion.
100%
After the way he let Robert Finn skate when he ran cover for a priest raping kids, Francis belongs in Hell. It’s a bummer that Hell isn’t a real place.
I mean… he spent some of his final hours with jd vance. Doesn’t get more hellish than that.
