Fox News host Sean Hannity dedicated a segment of his Thursday show to deliver a message to Pope Leo XIV, suggesting he and others at the Vatican had totally lost sight of the true meaning of the bible and its teachings.

Lmao I love how folks are telling the VOICE OF GOD ON EARTH that he’s wrong.
(I’m an atheist and don’t believe it, but this whole situation is hilarious.)
Catholics are not real “Christians”. So they dont believe in the Pope’s position or respect the Pope.
I cannot fathom telling a guy who has dedicated his life to the church though that he doesn’t understand the bible. Then again that is the republican MO, if you think you know better than an expert clearly you do.
I’m going to be pedantic, but it’s the exact opposite of what you wrote. Catholics are a branch of Christians, who give more importance to the role of saints and the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, among other differences.
So you should actually argue that they are not really Catholics, if they don’t recognize the authority of the Pope.
I had to read their comment a few times, but I think when they said “they,” they were referring to people like Hannity.
Like “according to people like Hannity, Catholics are not real Christians. Therefore, people like Hannity don’t believe in the Pope’s position or respect the Pope”
Definitely a strange way to word it.
I mean the catholics have shaped all Christianity.
Be sure you don’t say this in front of an Orthodox Christian…
No they haven’t, not even all chalcedonian Christianity.
The pope does understand the Bible, and he knows damn well that he’s misrepresenting it. That’s his job (and always has been).
Read the Bible, see for yourself. If you are short on time, just read Revelation (the last book).
p.s. my most hated comment ever! THANK YOU fuck the pope
This dude is fucking nuts. Revelation is easily the dumbest book of the bible to recommend.
Agreed.
I mean, it’s my favorite book of the Bible. But it’s the most easily misunderstood and misinterpreted. The whole thing is an allegory written in a particular kind of prose, drawing on tropes common to a genre of writing scholars call “apocalypse.” But given that even lifelong Christians are unaware of this fact means that this is definitely not the book to recommend reading as an entry point. Unless you’re looking for inspiration for something to airbrush on the side of your bitchin’ van (hopefully one with a crescent moon bubble window on the back). Then by all means flip to the section right before the maps and get to sketching!
ABSOLUTELY. I love the book of Revelation, but too many don’t understand how to read apocalyptic literature, nor do they understand the source material to contextualize the heavy symbolism. I blame a ton of the dumbshit premillenial dispensationalism crudely hobbled together to resemble a form of eschatology on a poor understanding of Revelation, Dallas Theological Seminary for spreading the fuck out of it, and Schofield for being the dipass to keep it from remaining the obscure hallucinogenic ramblings of a (probably) sick pentecostal woman in England. Man there are so many cool things about the theology of hope and some strong influences of Stoic philosophy(again), but man does American theology love to fetishize about the unbelievers facing a gruesome divine genocide…
Careful, or Pestilence will ride you down like a mangy dog, or something
It’s the only “cool” book the rest is boring nonsense.
The only people I have ever heard qout revelations, are nutters, and people trying to get money. It reads like biblical fanfic.
Yes, please, read the apocalyptic fever dream of a crazy man as proof that god exists. I’m totally convinced!
Why should anyone care what the bible says?
Thing is, they claim that they care about religion. Not sure how many deadly sins they are gobbling up with all of that because something doesn’t add up.
They’re def breaking every single commandment
