    Letting the mask slip, once nobody seemed to be looking…

    Religion. Not even once

      I think you can participate in a spiritual life without being an asshole. It’s unfortunate so many don’t.

        Whatever that is supposed to mean, I’m sure you can. But you shouldn’t expect anything of the kind from the head of an organisation with millennia of the most gruesome human rights abuses on their record.

        The pope is not just religious. He’s basically a politician as well, which is the more concerning demographic for likelihood of being an asshole.

    Bad word used

    ! The italian " Froci " is comparable to the English term " fag0tts " by adding " -aggine" , " Frociaggine " is something similar to " fagottism " !<

    Indeed a very touch of class from the old man.

      Is it a bad word that would have been in common use most of his life later understood a slur, or a bad word that has always been a slur alone and nothing else?

    “Today I want to tell you peasants, that there is no place for racism, sexism and patriarchy in our church. We embrace all human beings. And also fagg°ts and n!ggers and mull@hs. We especially embrace beautiful nude small boys!”

    the Catholic Church, probably
