@Vitus_osst Why would he fear the Trump admin unless he has a phobia of silly political rhetoric?

Pope Leo XIV, speaking on Monday at the beginning of his trip to Africa, expressed that he has "no fear of the Trump administration." He emphasized his commitment to continue speaking out "loudly against war."

@CAAPcorp @breeadail @Pontifex And one really dumb meme that you think is clever but is really rather juvenile.
English
English
@CAAPcorp @breeadail @Pontifex So in 2000 years you found some minor prelate sucking up to the Pope, a badly written single copy of canon law (never repeated) from the 1500’s (Under current Canon Law, the Pope is a servant of the Church), and a couple of references about the Pope as steward of the Church.
English
@CAAPcorp @breeadail @Pontifex Thr Pope is a steward of the Church tasked with protecting the deposit of the faith; Catholics ( not being clueless as the meaning of such) would consider him a representative/deputy/agent of the absolute head of the Church, Jesus Christ. That is is what Vicar means.
English
@breeadail This will never make sense to me, how you could be mad at “TRUMP” for posting a Meme,
Meanwhile @Pontifex actually claims to be acting in the place of Jesus Christ on earth.

@60Minutes If I had to pick the three most corrupt/heterodox bishops in the Catholic Church, Cupich, McElroy and Tobin would be at the top of the list.

“In the Catholic teaching, this is not a just war,” Cardinal Robert McElroy, Archbishop of Washington, D.C., says of the war in Iran. cbsn.ws/47SJKd8
English
@AnthonyJSisk @60Minutes Yeah…how exactly would one go about removing the current Iranian regime?
English
@60Minutes Midwit radical left Cardinal Robert McElroy followed that up by calling the Iranian regime ‘abominable’ & saying ‘they need to be removed.’
Clearly dumb & contradictory statements, & he knows it.
His real purpose on 60 Minutes was slamming the Trump admin ahead of the midterms.

@stevecook171 @FeserEdward Catholics read the Bible. Priests, in particular, read most of the Bible once a year (all of the NT and most of the OT) due to the daily offices & (on top of that) engage in personal study. I don’t agree w/ the Pope’s approach, but this particular objection is sil…inaccurate
English
@FeserEdward Well, you have convinced us that it is Catholic tradition to NOT read the Bible.
English
Yet another reminder for those falsely accusing Pope Leo of departing from traditional teaching. Here is Pope Nicholas I in the 9th century characterizing war in terms even harsher than Leo’s, while acknowledging (as Leo has) that defense against aggressors is legitimate. (Quoted in John Eppstein, The Catholic Tradition of the Law of Nations, p. 196)

@not_so_gratian Probably not as delicate as most people blathering on X, so he will probably be fine.

@JimTheAtheist @yoadriennetx @Franklin_Graham I find your beliefs offensive and oppressive so keep your beliefs to yourself. (See, I can do that as well).

@yoadriennetx @Franklin_Graham When your beliefs are offensive and oppressive to other people, keep your beliefs to yourself.

Paige Rogers is a sophomore at a Christian college in Kentucky who was fired from her job at a local coffee shop because she answered questions from two coworkers about her beliefs. They asked Paige about her beliefs on marriage, sexuality, and other topics. She answered honestly and respectfully, and a week later received a text saying that her employment was being terminated immediately because she had violated policies about workplace conduct. Ridiculous. Paige is right—no one should be fired for respectfully sharing their religious viewpoints—especially when asked. Would you pray for Paige and share an encouraging word in the comments below? foxnews.com/opinion/cowork…

@marcorandazza 60 Minutes couldn’t have found three more corrupt/heterodox bishops if they tried.
English
I’m Catholic
But there’s not a single Bishop nor Cardinal in the entire church that I give a flying fuck what they think about American nor global politics.

WASHINGTON, DC— @realDonaldTrump issues scathing response to His Holiness, Pope Leo XIV’s criticisms of his administration.

@shorepatrol @ericmetaxas @KelemenCari Yes. The walls are straight. Not angled. For heavens sake, get a life. It’s a building. The side walls are straight on both the inside and outside. It’s not some kind of massive conspiracy.
English
@nelmjn @ericmetaxas @KelemenCari No they aren't. They are angled toward the audience, not the stage. Why is there no shot from the same angle as the other photo? Have you taken a look at the exterior?
English
Marxist garbage, coming from the Pope. Perhaps he might mention how the CCP persecute Christians and crush dissent with murder and "organ harvesting". But that wouldn't play as well. Is he getting his talking points from Obama & Axelrod? YIKES.
Pope Leo XIV@Pontifex
Hundreds of millions of people throughout the world are immersed in extreme poverty. Yet, disproportionate wealth remains in the hands of a few. It is an unjust scenario, in the face of which we cannot fail to question ourselves and commit to change things. There is no lack of resources at the root of disparities, but the need to address solvable problems related to a more equitable distribution of wealth, to be achieved with moral sense and honesty.

@carleolson 60 minutes managed to find the three most corrupt and/or heterodox bishops in the American Catholic Church.

I wasn't aware that any thinking person took "60 Minutes" seriously. It's 20 years past its expiration date. Fittingly, so is the influence of these three Churchmen.

For the first time, three of America's most influential cardinals and archbishops agreed to a joint interview, sharing their candid take on war in Iran, immigration, and the future of the Catholic Church. Sunday on 60 Minutes. 60Minutes.com

@acnewsitics Well…you are a bit pathetic in implying that DEI was responsible for the accomplishments of these astronauts. I would have thought they earned their place.
