You are correct that the Pope is a man like us and is not chosen by God in the sense that God literally speaks and says who he wants to be Pope. Catholic teaching views the Pope’s selection as a human process guided by the Holy Spirit. As far as “insight” we believe he is preserved from theological error is certain very narrow instances. His every word is not considered infallible.

Trump has exposed the pope for being exactly what he is, just another Democrat from Chicago.

@mergerguy @MikeBales @xqben Sir, are you under the mistaken impression that Catholics think the Pope speaks directly to God in the same way that Mormons believe their Prophet does?

@MikeBales @xqben Can anyone with an IQ over 100 believe that some guy who was elected by a bunch of really old virgins with dementia dressed in clown suits, is suddenly someone who talks to God?

Anti Catholics really think we believe the Pope talks to God the way the Mormons believe their prophet does. Keep this in mind when engaging about religion online.

@SecretFire79 When was the last time that a Pope has actually spoken to God. Not a single Catholic can answer that question

It’s very important to jump right back in after a setback or a crisis. Lick your wounds in private. People are counting on you and need to know everything is going to be ok.

I was today years old when I learned there is a heresy called “Americanism”. It was declared by Pope Leo XIII (coincidence?) in 1899. It’s characterized by basically putting your own conscience above the Church. From the left it might include support for abortion or same-sex marriage, but it seems like we’re starting to see a manifestation of it from the political right in questioning the Pope’s authority to comment on American involvement in wars or immigration policies. We’re even seeing questions about the legitimacy of this Pope. If your first (or even second) instinct on hearing the Pope calling for peace was to assume it was an attack on Trump, or worse, to attack the Pope, you need to examine your conscience. We are Catholic Americans, not American Catholics. Our first duty is to the Church, not our national government.

@TurnbullMartin The original building hasn’t existed for a very long time. The property had been a vacant lot for at least two decades. Probably longer.

@EndWokeness The Pope had a once in a 1000 year chance to lead the Church against the evils of wokeism and predatory ideologies. Membership would have exploded. Young men would have been engaged. And instead he does this. Pathetic.

@PelopeAl41549 Studying moral theology will not help you overcome your cardinal sins. Daily prayer and frequent confession will do that and it might take months or it might take decades, but trust me, it works.

@findveritasx Probably best to ignore 95% of what passes for “Catholic” on this site. I’m not exaggerating. Also, don’t get into questions like whether or not canonizations are infallible. It doesn’t matter. She’s a canonized saint. That’s it. You are not required to seek her intercession.

Catholics are really gonna need to sit this one out, Dr. The thing calling itself "the Christian Left" in this country is Catholics who are all in for all of this stuff, and the Vatican is directly involved in the Council for Inclusive Capitalism.

Pope Leo XIV opposes unjust war, genocide, abortion, contraception, same-sex marriage, IVF, and transsexualism. Trump is soft or permissive on ALL those issues. Yet Trump calls the Pope “weak.” Who is the “weak” one?

If my Pastor started preaching Leftist ideologies that are antithetical to Scripure, I would leave that church. Why don't Catholics do the same?

Pope Leo is receiving massive criticism after appearing to promote an “alliance” between Muslims and Catholics during his trip to Algeria, not only going shoeless and signing the Golden Book inside Algeria’s Grand Mosque, but also declaring it a “space prosper to God.”

The amount of “bearing false witness” that casually happens on X is stunning. It’s made worse by the confidence with which people announce these falsehoods.

An apt comparison of what has happened to Swalwell would be Bill Cosby. The rumors about him drugging women circulated for years. Nothing came of them until he started telling black people to stop blaming all their troubles on whites. Then they took him out. It seems people collect dirt on prominent figures for years and years - and it all stays quiet if you toe the line. If you upset the powers that be - off with his head. It’s all a game of moral hypocrisy and sleaze.
POLITICO@politico

Warnings about Rep. Eric Swalwell had long circulated privately. Then a handful of women and online creators pushed them into public view, forcing California’s political establishment to reckon with how far he got. politico.com/news/2026/04/1…
