Facepalm alert. 🤦‍♂️

Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex

The focus of God’s concerns is that no one should perish forever and that everyone should have their own place and radiate their unique beauty.

@CatholicKyle I understand that. But that doesn't make it so; it could just be that the error is on your end.

Leo XIV tells educators: "Truth does not spread through sounds, walls and corridors, but in the profound encounter between people, without which any educational endeavor is doomed to fail" - https://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/en/speeches/2025/october/documents/20251031-giubileo-educatori.html Idiotic, but sounds profound.

@CatholicKyle Is this supposed to tell us how bad Sedevacantism is, or are you just looking for sympathy?

You can't make this stuff up.

When a religious sister felt inspired to write a Catholic vampire trilogy, she knew the inspiration came from Jesus — but she did not know if the other sisters would think she was “crazy.” https://t.co/Ea3G9amefW
