Pope Francis to stay in hospital because of ‘complex clinical picture’
-
Reminder that this guy was a right wing, homophobic windbag long before he was pope and the Vatican PR department started making look like a saint. He does nothing but spew hollow, PR written platitudes and says a lot of nice things without backing them up with actions. He still denies meetings with rape victims of his clergy, still stone walls them with lawyers, still shuffling around pedo priests to hide them. He’s as evil as any pope that has come before

Sooo... black smoke in 3-2-1?
Interesting bit of trivia for anyone interested in such things:
In 1595, a "prophecy" was published claiming to predict all the Popes through the end times.

Benedict was the last one on the list. So we're in uncharted territory until "Peter the Roman" ends it all by destroying Rome.

Can't wait until Trump tries to install the next Pope.
-
No Satan, the other old white guy. Comeback for this one later.
-
So edgy
-
You mean say he is the next pope. And that president musk is super pope.
-
He'll probably try to push Vance as the next pope. He's Catholic and a complete waste of space right now. And I'm sure JD would like to get intimate with a tabernacle.
-
It's pretty much guaranteed that whenever Francis pops his clogs the next pope will be ultra right-wing. Francis has been shitty in many ways, but as modern popes go he's been more on the tolerant side of things. That's pissed off a bunch of hard-right cardinals. So the next one will almost certainly be an opus dei fascist. At that point many will probably be looking at Francis with a little bit more nostalgia.

Not for nothing but the movie Conclave is fantastic and a useful primer of how the process we're likely to witness fairly soon actually works.

I'm old enough to remember Pope John Paul I -> Oops. 33 days later... "Didn't we just do this?" John Paul II.
-
Fuuuuuck catholicism. Fuck all religious leaders, really, but they have probably caused more damage than all the others combined, so fuck them in particular.
-
But is he as evil as the Pope who will come after?
-
The last one was a nazi, maybe we need a robot pope or a black pope, shake it up Catholics!

For a crash course, you can watch the Vatican segment of Eurotrip, it's in the last 20 minutes or so, iirc.
-
As long as it's not a woman Pope, that would be her-esy!
-
There’s a historical myth of one, she passed as a man and after death the doctor was like “where da dick?”. The church says it never happened which makes me think it did.
-
He is 88, i think he prayed hard enough
-
Oh boy, I'm sure that'll help with the extreme rise in right-wing ideology and leadership worldwide.
-
Not a good name for a guy who destroys Rome. Maybe Peter the Ex-Roman.
-
Google will agree to change the name of the Holy See to the Holy See How Smart Trump Is.
