While speaking at a Turning Point USA event in Athens, Georgia, Vice President JD Vance said that Pope Leo XIV should “be careful” when he talks about theology. The pope recently criticized the war with Iran.

    Beefing with the pope should definitely have been on my bingo card for this administration, I feel stupid for not seeing it coming now.

    The utter fucking nerve of these assholes.

    I’m not even a christian anymore, Catholic or otherwise. In fact I’ve long since gone full on athiest.

    But even I’M offended by this new level of horseshit by the Trump clown-show.

      Right? I really dislike the catholic church and am an atheist myself, but these morons make the pope look like a reasonable statesman by comparison.

        Curious how the framing makes something unreasonable become reasonable. Moving the conversation towards the unreasonable.

          It doesn’t really; it’s hyperbole by comparison. The distance from my home to the moon is vast and unwalkable, but if you compared it to the distance between the earth and the center of the galaxy, someone might say it looks like a short walk in comparison.

          It obviously still is not possible, but it’s a way to stress how big the comparison is.

      I am with you. I don’t believe in what the Pope stands for but also recognize that he is not only the head of state of a foreign government, but the mouthpiece of a significant part of human tradition. This really is like the “fake news” arguments from Trump’s first campaign, i.e., “I don’t agree with what they say so I will attack them personally.”

        Theology might just be overly-specific literary study, but I can at least acknowledge when someone is a world-class expert on it.

    So keen to see what the pope does this week. TBH never been so invested in the pope or his beefs.

    The amount of crazy interactions I have slight obsessions over has increased lately. In the last week Iran being bombed, the Hungarian election and now I have a ton of questions on the military tactics of invading the Vatican City. I wonder if there’s secret oil under it…or maybe some attractive Venetian sofas.

          He didn’t change his name to Vance until after high school, so probably not.

    Look, they already decided they knew science better than scientists, they knew war better than military generals, they knew economy better than economists.

    Why did aynone think they would stop at theology?
