Might as well go back to what you know, have another crusade!

He's right though Christians would not make such a mess over there.

So a priest, a rabbi, and an imam walk into a bar...

Does anyone really think when he speaks about such things that it truely influences change?

Again? How'd that go last time...

No, it's just virtue signaling.

agreed

that's just what Jews and Muslims need, some catholic guidance

The conflict will take longer than queen elizabeth age to be resolved

If you were to glass Jerusalem with a nuclear bomb, would that not resolve a good part of believer tension?

I'm sure they'll get right on that now that he's said to.

Think you need to be introduced to this crazy thing called the last 2000 years my guy. But specifically any of the crusades where Christians tried to genocide the entire region

Why is this oniony? He’s a religious leader after all, isn’t that what he’s supposed to say?

How about the history of the caliphate, turning a whole region Muslim by force?

Tell me you've kind of heard of world history without actually knowing anything about world history.

Seems like an unrelated point, just trying to say christianity isn't any better. Plus christianity has done the same in Iberia during the spanish inquisition, plus everything that happened in south america after its discovery. Also most of christian history has been oppressing various religious and cultural groups

Just enough to back up thier preconceived ideas, not enough to actually learn anything...

Look up how often Christian priests/monks have gotten into fistfights in Jerusalem over control of holy sites. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre has to give its key to a Muslim family since they can't agree among themselves

Nothing would be good. I would much prefer for him to talk about how the Catholic heaven can be a good place if pets don't get into it.

No, it wouldn't.

I'm writing a book where exactly that happened; after a new cult emerged, declared a crusade against all monotheism, and is winning mostly because no country in the Near and Middle East was seriously willing to ally with any other against them anymore.

Yeah, my Roman Catholic Boomer aunt

part of the job being a pope

Religions are made up of a system of virtues lol. What should he do?

"YOU'RE NOT MY SUPERVISOR!"

classic reddit comment

touch grass etc.

Pipe Paul VI, had no doubts, “One day we will again see our animals in the eternity of Christ,” Paul once told a boy grieving the loss of his pet."

For a guy who lives in a giant fort and wears pajamas all day, the Pope has built more credibility than any political leader I can name right now
