๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐๐ฝI'm going with the Pope on this.
Preston von Gabbleduck@georgetakei Guessing it'll be about 24 hours before the Trump administration declares the pope an enemy of the state.
Frank Bennett ๐ฏ๐ต@backupbear @georgetakei Trump should add the Vatican to the list of states he expects to send marine escorts to the Persian Gulf. That'll teach 'em.
lemgandi@georgetakei Ah, those Christians. So Crazy.,
Sean LynchEven though this war was started to explicitly distract from the Epstein #pedo-files, the Catholic Church is still opposing it!
Have we truly turned a corner?

K. E. Aplin๐บ๐ธ๐จ๐ฆ@georgetakei a pretty strange claim for the Roman church to make. (I donโt disagree, tho)
WellsiteGeo@Raven67 @georgetakei It is so a-historical that it would be hilarious if it came from an organisation with a close attachment to reality.
eighthourlunch@georgetakei This just in: Judeo-Christian god drowns all of his children for their unruly behavior, forces the surviving family to incestuously repopulate the earth.

And I am willing to bet that God is not amused by RWNJs trying to start the Apocalypse, for the exact same reason.

Cowboy@georgetakei yeah literally God but obviously with the chosen ones
HTPC NZ@georgetakei Funny how quite a few US "Catholics" ignore the Pope and worship their pedo daddy & his disciples instead...

Chuck@georgetakei I'd be careful, JD has already killed one Pope.
Carlos SolรญsIf someone was supposed to follow on "What Would Jesus Do?โข", the Pope more than anyone is expected to do so, it's practically in the job description. And so far father Bob's been doing that mostly fine, not gonna lie
Dean F.@georgetakei Thank God I'm an atheist!
Conny Nasch@soulexpress @georgetakei me too, but that was a very decent reply to the horrors the orange idiot and his sycophants are imposing on the world.
Ianagol@georgetakei So he admits itโs a war now?

@georgetakei @petergleick Indeed he should be careful, #Vatican could be next after Venezuela, Iran and Cuba...

@georgetakei it is all about how you define darkness. That is obviously the job of the pope.
Sorry, but the leaders of oppressive religion is not the ones to get praise when talking back at other oppressive leaders.
God is constructed for oppression.

Hugs4friends โพ๐บ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ธ๐ท@TimMaddog Well, yes, but we have no media to say whether anyone invoked God. It's kinda hearsay. @georgetakei
Lats (314 ppm)@georgetakei the Old Testament is all about god killing his people, stressing them to the max and forcing them to do some pretty nasty things. The New Testament gives god a makeover as the god of the weak, sick and poor (the god of love). Christians believe in the god of the New Testament but many seem to act as if they follow the god of the Old Testament which is odd given the OT is effectively the bible of the Jews.

A point missed by so many who claim to follow it's "teachings"
Don't get me started on Moses
Scott Williams ๐ง@georgetakei As a Protestant, I also agree with the pope on this one
@georgetakei It is blasphemous. Hegseth can't, in any honesty, call himself a Christian.
VHG ๐ช๐บ๐บ๐ฆ@georgetakei hat der Papst da gerade gesagt, dieser Hegseth kรถnne ihm einen Schuh aufblasen?
Simon ZerafaThey really are Christo-fascists, co-opting evangelical right wingers into the apocalypse.
@simonzerafa It's incredibly unsettling
Certainly is if we let them win. The trick will be for them not to win ๐๐
Seb@georgetakei Tbf godโs got form on this type of thing
Jayflo@georgetakei @seb321 I think you mean " people invoking the name of a god" have form ......
@jayflo @georgetakei itโs a difficult distinction to make. If god exists then they are ultimately responsible. If not then they only exist in as much as they are invoked by people.
rails@georgetakei Says the Boss of the Organization, that raided and killed in the name of god for centuries during the crusades.
Exactly my kind of humor....But also a sign, that change is possible. ๐ฅณ
Art - US Expat in Spain@georgetakei Oh good. I'm happy that the Pope cherry picks the humanist side of religion to stand on but Hegseth and others can simply cite the evil, misogynistic, murderous parts to keep this endless stupid debate going on. Instead can we simply look at history and science and human nature which has shown us that there is not one shred of evidence of any God and keep the debate rational?
arosano ๐ฉ๐ฐ ๐ฎ๐ฑ@georgetakei The pope that presides over a church that killed more people than any other religious group in the history of mankind?
@arosano @georgetakei
[Self : thinks on your claim, regarding Mongol hordes and Roman Empire. Side serving of Alexander the Genocidal.]
With the slight caveat that the Catholics had better tools, I have to agree.

Mazza@georgetakei yay, even the Pope isnโt fooled by the #OrangeFaced idiot!
GJ Groothedde ๐ช๐บ@georgetakei I'm going with the Pope in A LOT.
@Eetschrijver Especially in matters like this.
@georgetakei Definitely.
Wieke@georgetakei ๐คฆโโ๏ธ โChristiansโ thinking their AntiChrist leader is killing children under the protection of God. Completely insane. But hey, sexually abusing children is great too according to the MAGA followers.
Kenneth Bousquet@georgetakei
That's the truth from God's heart.
It is not by violence that we build a good relationship.
We must all unite against the division.
