    Of course people are blaming him being too accepting of trans people, his view of “let them survive but they’re sinners unwelcome to the eucharist” is unfortunately far too progressive for some.

    Fortunately the church of Jesus of Nazareth will prioritize profit over peace and love

      The idea of the pope marginalizing a group because they’re sinners is pretty sad, given he has dedicated his life to teaching that literally every ordinary human is a sinner. Among other things.

      Then that being too progressive for Joe Catholic is even more sad.

      Unfortunately, what it is NOT is surprising. White Catholic family here. They dehumanize just as well as the rest of the conservatives.

        It’s too progressive for American Catholics in particular who are currently experiencing a serious identity crisis and infighting because of trumpism. It’s been wild to watch unfold. An archbishop just got excommunicated for schism idk 6mo ago?
