    I love you Leo but these leaders couldn’t care less about god. Perhaps a better twist would “Leaders who wage wars are antichrists on Earth”?

        yea that why I think it is more to the point to equate them with antichrist (or atleast their cult if we wanna give it a lovecraftian twist) rather than just someone whose prayers don’t get accepted. Leo is a playa, he should know this.

      These guys may not care about God, but they sure do invoke him a lot. Hegseth and other commanders are catching a LOT of complaints from officers and troops about the constant barrage of religious rhetoric coming from the top. And Israel and Iran are doing everything they’re doing in the name of the same God as us.

      So it’s good that Pope Leo is speaking out directly against those hypocrites. I don’t believe in any of that hogwash, but Pope Leo has a lot more credibility as a man of God than any of those other psychopaths.
