Pope Leo XIV has consistently spoken out against the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration enforcement tactics, a notable stance given his status as the first American pope.

Grindr boy claims that mistreating immigrants is okay by the Bible.

Meanwhile:

Leviticus 19:33–34 When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt.

      Johnson isn’t Catholic though, right? I mean, he could technically do it, but I think it would be shit-stirring. That’s pretty anti-papal.

      On the other hand, we haven’t had a proper holy war involving the Vatican in a long, long time.

      Excommunicate him!

          Imagine a cult. Now, imagine inside that cult another cult. And finally, inside that cult, imagine a group so crazy that the cult’s cult said, “maybe you should go start a cult, we won’t stop you as long as you leave us alone.”

          And believe it or not, that double-cult’s cult often spawns cults that manage to actually get labeled as cults by governing entities.

        JD Vance is a Catholic convert.

        Neither has an excuse to ignore the Bible, but Vance is doubly on the hook for his conversion of choice.

      While tempting, political excomunnications are frowned upon.

      This could be done on moral grounds, it’d just be obviously political. They need to be cautious because they manage the church in authoritarian states, ethnostates, failed states, and lawful states alike.

      It’s not as cut and dried as we all want it to be.
