We’ve really got to stop all these stupid attacks on entire groups, when the real problem is a characteristic of humans.

Attacking them is no way to get their help in fixing it.

As is any person of fame.if they were poor you wouldn’t hear of them. And if they are sufficiently influential they can become wealthy at a whim from donations or selling out. Reach has value. And opinions of the wealthy do matter in the real world.
Your wrong, too, as while the Vatican is wealthy so is america. And the gay fans wealth is dependent on subsidiaries with their own goals and ambitions. The pope is much less powerful than you are giving them credit from. Schisms happen for a reason.
