Benedict begun investigating and purging them, and reforming other standards.

all this means is that we need an American Pope

Will never happen

yep

I remember the Vatican was throwing shade over some of the more nationalist American bishops

Sometime between Trump becoming the chief Republican candidate and about 4 months ago

The Young Pope is a pretty good show

American Catholics have always been nationalists

The US has 11 Cardinals able to participate in the Conclave.
By the time Frances is done it will be more like 5-6 (any over 80 cannot participate)

And I doubt they would get support from the 20% of the conclave that is Italian

Y'all Catholics need a North American Orthodoxy

True

American is mostly Protestant and Catholic

American Catholics have also been separated from Europe for 250years

Ye

So we are not as oppressive

I think

They are still pretty close to Roman Catholics tho. Seperated but still together.

Its just the Laws of America just make it more lax by defect.

Right, but there's a whole offshoot line of philosophy and Canon to deal with

There was a trend for some time where I was hearing a wave of Protestant churches getting too liberal, and the congregation completely flipped over and requested conversion to Catholicism

Haven't heard much of it in the last 5 years though

The American Cardinals have some good positions tho

One is an Archbishop and Patron of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta
Another is Grand Master of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre.
Another is Archpriest of the Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls

Another Prefect of the Dicastery for the Laity, Family and Life

Hell we even have a seat on the Major Penitentiary emeritus

And Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith

Funny you say 'hell'.

Of all the times we don't have @Broo TulsiGang 2024 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 online

lmao

Kek

free speech btw: 43% of Republicans think the President should be able to "close news outlets engaged in bad behavior": <https://www.ipsos.com/sites/default/files/ct/news/documents/2018-08/media_trust_topline_080618_0.pdf> <https://www.thedailybeast.com/new-poll-43-of-republicans-want-to-give-trump-the-power-to-shut-down-media> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/418850379518705675/477693822806130690/unknown.png
