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

      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

        This is the only truth. Fuck him. I’m glad he’s dead.

      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).
