it's really strange that we went from a "meh for secular people, cool guy for christians" pope in John Paul II, to "meh for christians, hell yeah for conservative christians, ๐Ÿ™„ 'the church is outdated and would have that opinon' for secular/atheistic people in Benedict 16/palpatine , to "Fuck yeah progressive pope" in both Francis and Leo 14.

Sidenote ; I appriciated the progressiveness of Francis, but I'm really impressed with the consistency and pragmatism of Leo. He started out timid before being definitive.
