Somehow I doubt this was because Francis continued church policies of covering up for sex offenders.

I think she really believes this stuff.
The "private" chatroom from a while ago seems to indicate that, indeed, they believe their own shit. It would be worrying to have these people in position of great power, wouldn't it?
This is the least inexplicable shit to barf out her word hole. A lot of branches on the Protestant tree hate the Catholic Church and always have.
How is this news?
Seems newsworthy to me when powerful government officials say unhinged and deranged things.
Ona day that end in y.
everything happens so much
American Christianity is weird to me. Cult like group rituals and yet it's my fault for noticing.
As compared to Italian Christianity, which totally does not have cult like group rituals.
What is italian christianity? Do you mean catholicism?
If you do then, no it doesnt have cult like behaviour. Lots of catholics, lutherans, calvinists, hugenots, zwinglinists and anglicans dont even get near cultish. If they wouldnt tell you, at none of their behaviours would you notice which religion if at all they are a part off. Its not an every day talk topic like with the free churches, prespetarians, mega churches, quakers aso in the US.
The church is getting constantly mocked in media. On good german media that had a focus on it is "Das kleine Arschloch" (the little asshole). Media that mocks church, jesus, or anything religiouse is often banned in america. The catholic church is openly being critisised for their money hording, pedophilia, hiding CSAs and their priests owning CP occasionally.
Churches are empty.
A german joke is: "How do you get rid of your local priest? Show up to church. Gives him a heart attack from someone suddenly being there"
it IS weird, and mostly heretical.
mostly heretical.
What isn't?
Wow what a speck of dust :/
She strikes me as someone who says controversial things to remain relevant.
Reminds me of one we had over here, I intentionally don't remember her name but like Piers Morgan but less relevant.
Always chuckle at went on TV saying she hates people calling their children after places.... and her daughter was called India.
I remember seeing that on YouTube years ago.

She was a Qanon wine mom YouTuber prior to her political career, so yeah, you are 100% correct.
Is she vile because she knows that we know that she’s a bleach blonde, bad-built butch body bitch? I mean, I’m down to go ad hoc too at this point. 💪
Did she misspell her name?
He was gasp ... Nice to people sometimes?!
If anything he was "rescued", or "promoted to headquarters" if you will. Because he was too good a man for these times ahead, and sadly had been getting weaker for a while. And the world is morally poorer for his departure.
I don't view the Vatican as the shining beacon of light it wants to be, but Pope Francis was a great Pope, who more than talking, walked the walk and lead by example. Loved by catholics and even people of other religions, as well as many atheists/agnostics. A unifying force of good.
Yet before he went he made sure his last big act was to admonish Vance and the Trump administration. Good on him.
So what she's saying is the JD Vance really did kill the pope?
What an ugly woman
Because he spoke Spanish? Wow, that's racist.
