I’m atheist but I’m still quite sad he died, seemed like the most progressive pope to me, rip
I can’t believe the church’s PR pope actually fooled an atheist. None of his talk was real. Homophobia continues rampant through the church, he himself continued to shield and hide pedo priests from authorities, refused to meet with victims. He was a right wing, homophonic bigot before becoming pope, you think he changed at age 80?
He was all smoke and mirrors, nothing actually changed, all he did was put the golden throne in storage, not donate it to charity
Iconic lines from Cartman in South Park (S14E3)
Billy: Do you wanna do it?
Cartman: Do I wanna do it? Does the pope help pedophiles get away with their crime?
…
Billy: Is that something you would want to do?
Cartman: Is that something I would want to do? Is the pope Catholic…and making the world safe for pedophiles?
…
Billy: You wouldn’t do that.
Cartman: Does a bear crap in the woods? And does the pope crap on the broken lives and dreams of 200 deaf boys?
Thank you, Cartman.
This is the only truth. Fuck him. I’m glad he’s dead.
Agreed. While not the ideal pope, he was much better than Benedict the 16th.
Yes he was.
I am not religious at all, but I have seen some quite human responses from him on matters like LHBTQ, ukraine, Gaza and such.
Also: I am quite anxious to see who will succeed him (hoping for a progressive one obviously).
You mean when he said that Ukraine should have the courage to surrender to Russia?
Yeah okay, that was less fortunate 😅
Oh you must have missed when he used the F-word (in italian)
Yeah but that’s not a high bar. Hopefully his successor is even more so.
