    How 'bout staying on topic of the Pope, rather than making every darn thread of this board an us vs them American political jab? Just a thought.

    If you're a big Pelosi fan, I say lean into it, brother. Be you. There is no shame.

    OK, maybe there is some shame, but own it. Don't apologize!

    "This principle is often interpreted as a balance between civic duty and religious faith. It encourages individuals to participate in society while also maintaining their spiritual values and beliefs. "

    Wonder if your values are "lock up people with no due process because they aren't born in the same place I was"?

    Pope Francis was anti-Christian, anti-European and the enemy of Western civilization. He promoted massive African and Muslim immigration to Europe that may turn France into a Muslim country in 2 generations.
    He appointed 109 of the 135 cardinal electors who will choose his successor, passing over many conservative Europeans. Won't be a surprise if the next Pope is even worse.

    As for the Italian-American catholic Pelosi, she is an important member of the US delegation to Francis' funeral. I felt it was important to hear her eloquent remembrance of Pope Francis

    I don't think so......There were posts earlier this year about Zelenski disrespecting Trump by not wearing a suit to the Whitehouse. It is just his style, guess he is disrespecting the Pope too?

    Any of the suit police want to weigh in on Trump wearing a blue suit contrary to the dress code?

    Trump accused of Pope Francis funeral faux pas after ‘breaking dress code’

    President Donald Trump has been accused of breaking the dress code for Pope Francis’s funeral by wearing blue – rather than black – to the Vatican service.

    Trump and his wife Melania, who by contrast wore a black dress and black veil, then left the ceremony as soon as it was over, rather than waiting until after the burial.

    The dress code for the funeral at St Peter’s Square in Vatican City required men to wear a dark suit with a black tie and a black button on the left lapel.

    Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelensky did not wear a formal suit but black military attire of the type he has worn consistently since the Russian invasion in February 2022.

    Thanks. Another aspect of improving the tone in THFSG that is soon to be more thoroughly addressed.
