Gotta hand it to all the folks who warned me that “cool pope” was just paying lip service to progressive ideals and didn’t actually fundamentally change how shitty the actual Catholic church is. They were right all along and I owe them all an apology.
He’s kind of a wimp, then. I’m sure his progressive views are genuine, he has no reason to lie, but I’d think he would know that Canon Law is geared towards papal supremacy, the Cardinals can denounce him all they like, but they can’t kick him out. Sure, he could start a schism, but the world was overdue for one, anyway.
