Well the Pope is the head of a sovereign State. So I think he was a politician before he said starvation was bad tbh.

Maybe he'll risk a foray into the abortion debate..

Buddy how do you think one becomes Pope? You have to win an election. Organized religion has always been politics.

Honestly don't know how many people(especially Americans) know that "Vatican city" is a sovereign country James. That's setting awfully expectations of them.

I almost can’t blame them because elected monarch is a wild concept to think of in modern times

It has city in the name, obviously it can't be a sovereign nation state. It would be something like a "city state", what a silly concept.

Yikes simpling for starvation as an acceptable belief and not a moral failing.

I typically think of sanctions as gov policy, but given the root, I'm guessing there's a whole deep dive on its meaning in the Vatican vocabulary

Time to reform a Papal Expeditionary Force (PEF). Who's got the next best mercenaries besides the Swiss? Benefit: MAGA trad Catholics will be accused of either being dual-loyalists for a woke Pope army or be discovered for the fact that they really just liked Inquisition & Crusader vibes.

I would buy GI Pope Woke Force action figures and accessories all day.

G.I. Pope! A real Vatican hero. Although, I'd kinda go for the Action Figure Therapy version of a Vatican Marine Gung Ho. (He had the best catch phrase in AFT)

I think their aligned now. Gotta go reassert authority of New World conquests again. Apparently some have gone back to their natural and feral state and have to be converted again.

“Can’t believe the pope would intermingle politics and religion like this.” Say the people who want to legislate the 10 Commandments into every classroom.
