    Nice I guess. I wonder how many people will change their mind due to this. My mom for example, has zero problems with simultaneously being ultra-catholic (explicitly pro-church, not just pro-religion) and at the same disagreeing with the pope whenever she feels like it.

      My dad, very strong “Catholic”. Pope says something, my dad, “ahh don’t listen to him, he’s an idiot”

      My interpretation is he’s not actually catholic just likes the church because sometime he can use it to justify his bigotry, when it’s convenient for him and nobody has the energy to challenge the hypocrisy
