Cut off the oxygen and send him prayers instead. He’s the pope ffs.

Next pope will probably be significantly worse.

This one was remarkably progressive and has infuriated nearly the entirety of conservative/reactionary Christianity. They will do everything to ensure one of them will become the next pope.

At least the German Catholic church may decide to split away from the Vatican. Their relationship is already hanging on by a thread and a reactionary pope may push it over the edge.

German Catholics wanting to split? Lutherans might be having a laugh

To be fair, lots have happened in a few centuries.

German Catholic Church

Note that none of these people ever really got punished.

In US a few got bad PR.

This is the culture of the people who rule us and normie bootlickers is satisfied

Ohh no he might die... Nobody fucking cares. The Catholic Church is international pedo protection organization and Catholics are disgusting bootlickers that permitted their children to be abused by the church. But hey at least "community"

Everything you said was right. I just feel compelled to mention Protestant churches are also pedo protection rings, just less organized and less paper trail.

Correct, most if not all religions institutions are fronts for pedophiles.

This one always gets people riled up but Muslims to this day will defend their fake sky daddy Mohamed

Bro, having sex with 9yo married or not, 1000 years ago or 100.

That's a fucking pedo... And y'all defending him tells more about you than anything else.

People really need to get rid of this daddy historical figure worship. Big root causes of a lot of issues lies in this pathological need for adult people to believe in some old criminal being a good guy.

He's 88, so the implication of your comment is left as an exercise for the reader

He's the leader of a worldwide cult responsible for the pain and suffering of millions. He's a cunt, and, like his religion, he's taken too long to die.
