Pope Francis Stacked the Deck
[Chick.com] With Pope Francis’ death, everyone wants to know —what will the next pope be like? Francis may be gone, but he’s done everything he can to stack the deck and answer that question.

As Francis’ health declined, he ramped up his efforts to secure his legacy of liberal leadership. After appointing 88 cardinals during his 12-year tenure, he added another 20 as his health deteriorated toward the end of 2024. Many of those 20 are outspoken advocates for the LGBTQ+ movement, liberation theology, and dialogue that continues Francis’ push that "all roads lead to Rome."

Of the 135 men who will vote for the next pontiff, a whopping 80% were appointed by Francis. In keeping with Francis’s liberal leanings, the majority of his appointees are theologically progressive, socially liberal, and culturally in step with the godless 21st-century West. It’s safe to say that the next pope won’t just continue Francis’s agenda—he’ll probably push it even further.

WOKE LEADERSHIP FOR A WOKE WORLD
The Vatican has long had a pattern: it reflects the spirit of the age. As Europe abandoned their Christian heritage, the Catholic church liberalized. As Western culture adopted a more ungodly moral compass, so did Rome — especially under Francis. Francis’s cardinal picks prove the point.

#1 Well, this is an issue. But if you read the whole article, it turns out that the author is an anti-Catholic bigot.

Not a good look.

Saw a meme that Vatican smoke will be Rainbow.

After this last Liberally Strange Pope violating the bible, Working with Islamics, and taking a pro-position on Homosexual priests.

It likely has more than a few wondering how far LEFT will the Catholic LLC go to bring numbers and $$$$$

#4 Without the USA taxpayer funding for Catholic Charities human smuggling the Catholic Church will have serious cash flow issues the next few years.

#5 The church has always been a bastion for the LGBTQXYZ people, child molesting is just one of the byproducts of this church gone insane.
