Iconic lines from Cartman in South Park (S14E3)
Billy: Do you wanna do it?
Cartman: Do I wanna do it? Does the pope help pedophiles get away with their crime?
…
Billy: Is that something you would want to do?
Cartman: Is that something I would want to do? Is the pope Catholic...and making the world safe for pedophiles?
…
Billy: You wouldn't do that.
Cartman: Does a bear crap in the woods? And does the pope crap on the broken lives and dreams of 200 deaf boys?

In addition, he was also transphobic and opposed to bodily self-determination as well nya: https://apnews.com/article/vatican-gender-surrogacy-abortion-pope-3f84d8eb97f045b0cfb0ec1efa4e614e

Well it does if they promote other progressive people to higher positions in the organization.

You mean when he said that Ukraine should have the courage to surrender to Russia?

I can’t believe the church’s PR pope actually fooled an atheist. None of his talk was real. Homophobia continues rampant through the church, he himself continued to shield and hide pedo priests from authorities, refused to meet with victims. He was a right wing, homophonic bigot before becoming pope, you think he changed at age 80?
He was all smoke and mirrors, nothing actually changed, all he did was put the golden throne in storage, not donate it to charity

Agreed. While not the ideal pope, he was much better than Benedict the 16th.
u/Cpo@lemm.ee · 7 points
Yes he was.
I am not religious at all, but I have seen some quite human responses from him on matters like LHBTQ, ukraine, Gaza and such.
Also: I am quite anxious to see who will succeed him (hoping for a progressive one obviously).
u/catloaf@lemm.ee · 2 points
Yeah but that's not a high bar. Hopefully his successor is even more so.

I'm atheist but I'm still quite sad he died, seemed like the most progressive pope to me, rip
