In two hours JD Vance will release a statement saying Pope Leo is an ANTIFA agent of the deep state…and probably a Venezuelan Terrorist.

Someone should explain to Trump that you cannot receive a peace prize for a war you started.

The National Catholic Reporter calling “The vice president’s comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith.”
He’d do well to stay out of the US, unless he brings his bulletproof Popemobile with him. There’s ICE on the roads. He might find himself in Guatamala, or Guatapejor.

Here are the eight wars Trump claims to have stopped:
Spoiler alert, he didn’t stop them. He has dropped bombs at **five times** the rate of Biden

JD is only catholic for expediency so even the infallible pope won’t move him away from his careerist monstrosity.

Man, the irony of Trump having the entire bible thumping section of the voter base, while the Pope himself comes out and says trumps bad (in less straightforward words) just goes to show the hypocrisy of Christianity. They preach it and an extremely large portion don’t follow it but instead cherry pick the parts they like and that’s about it. MAGA would deport Jesus if he showed up at the door to tell them how wrong they are. As a matter of fact, I think there is a video of an extremely ignorant maga woman saying just that, if Jesus didn’t come legally then she’d be for him being deported. Unreal

Until the pope starts excommunicating these fascists I hold my support.
Any functionary if this regime doesn’t belong in a Christian congregation while they terrorize the innocent for what? Racism? Greed? Fuck em.
They can repent and be welcomed back but until then they can feel the cold of the absence of jesus’ presence as they are barred from mass and sacraments

This is why the CIA was promoting evangelical churches in Latin America. The reason there are so many Pentecostal churches in Latin America is because Catholicism is viewed as a communist religion, no joke. There’s a reason why evangelical „missions“ abroad are more about proselytizing than actually helping people. Pentecostalism is one of the most effective denominations to advance this mission because it is a highly vitriolic, fire-and-brimstone, socially conservative, isolating, and emotional church. I was raised around it. My grandmother went from not attending church, to born-again, to becoming a pastor in less than five years. Countries with rampant wealth inequality, violence, crumbling safety nets and institutions, and political corruption are breeding grounds for a popular uprising once people get pushed too far.
What better way to quell this than to attract just enough people into a philosophy where they will willingly put themselves under the thumb of repression for fear of eternal damnation? It’s easy to fracture class solidarity when just enough people are convinced that the reason things are fucked up is because society „abandoned“ God. It’s easy for people to go against their best interests when you convince them that activists are satanic. Evangelical churches routinely present feminists, „hippies“, leftists, LGBT, the socially excluded, and academics as a threat to family values and morality rather than victims of circumstance or forces for positive change. Religious leaders are in positions of power even without being in public office, so it’s pertinent for the CIA to introduce religions that preach against the people or ideas that could threaten American capital interests. Pentecostals are in no way the majority, but see a Pentecostal service in Latin America for yourself and you’ll understand how these often tiny churches can occupy a very important space within a struggling community.

Now start excommunicating his cabinet of evil. That Kkkaroline bitch and couch fucker JD should not be allowed in a church.

It’s unfortunate, but there are a lot of people who think trump is the second coming of Jesus. I’m convinced he’s the antichrist.

HOW ABOUT KICKING OPUS DEI OUT OUT OF THE CHURCH?
imo THAT would actually go a long way in sending a message to the MAGA faithful… like oops, on second thought WE WERE WRONG about Escriva, and reverse his sainthood.

the vatican literally has more moral clarity on imperialism than the entire democratic establishment combined, which is absolutely pathetic when you think about it. meanwhile our party leadership is too busy protecting corporate donors to say anything remotely controversial about endless war profiteering.

Christians hate him I know he’s following doctrine the way God intended it to be.

According to my devout Catholic family members, the infallible, voice-of-god Pope is wrong because Trump = Good. I’m an honest to God Gymnastics judge and I can’t make that logical leap work.

Here are the eight wars Trump claims to have stopped:
Israel and Hamas
Israel and Iran
Egypt and Ethiopia
India and Pakistan
Serbia and Kosovo
Rwanda and Congo
Armenia and Azerbaijan
Cambodia and Thailand
And here is the status of each:
