BREAKING: 🇻🇦 Pope Leo XIV:

“Those who urge the faithful to pray for military victories and for the destruction of the adversary—this way of thinking is entirely foreign to the path of our Lord. Christianity has been distorted by a dark desire for domination. Man has fallen into the temptation of confusing power with righteousness. We consider ourselves powerful when we manage to dominate others, and victorious when we destroy. But that is not God’s victory—it is the defeat of human spirit.”

"As long as even a single child is crying beneath the rubble because of them, every ‘Amen’ they utter will be a blasphemy."

~ Pope Leo, Palm Sunday sermon ❤️

He’s the right man for the job at exactly the right time.

I hold no religion, but my admiration for Pope Leo holds no bounds. What a wonderful leader and human being he is.

Pope Leo XIV almost makes me want to be Catholic again. He's a good man.

I keep hearing right wing news outlets talking about Jesus and how the nation needs to get back to faith. Yet when it comes to waging war, or closing the door to migrants in need, the teachings of Jesus are not even a factor.

I’m no longer a practicing Catholic but this guy has got it going on!

Truth.

Praise God thank you for Pope Leo a true shepherd to all

I pray our country 🇺🇸 is someday free of this administration and we make the changes needed to NEVER let this happen again. Money and Power is what rules 🇺🇸 right now and this needs to change

Amen 🙏🏽

Thank you Pope Leo harmony for our world means listening to others with love and mutual respect 🙏🏻 not fighting.

Truer words have never been spoken. Amen. 🙏

"How can you close your hands to pray when they are full of blood?" -Pope Leo.

I am an atheist. This Pope may find me back in Church just because he is right!

Thank you for your steadfast leadership guiding the world away from evil.

I truly disagree with this man. None of us want violence, but the Iranian people want freedom from tyranny, and since the ayatollahs won’t relinquish their iron grip on power, their removal by brute force is justified: with them out of the way, terror financing will subside substantially. It’s a falsehood to claim that God’s not involved some times when violence is applied. God is sovereign and his prerogative involves removing evil by judgment. Leo should read his Bible more carefully.

Grateful for Pope Leo’s reminder about the true meaning of Christianity. May Peace and Love guide us all. Amen to this important message. ✝️

I am a card carrying witch, but I am loving this Pope's outspokenness. About bloody time!

Semi-practicing Catholic here and I love Pope Leo. I hate the NAZI POS disgusting excuse for a human Trump.

I really love how the pope is speaking out, but as someone who has deconstructed and left Christianity - is he forgetting the anger and vengeance and jealousy of the God of the Old testament who commanded people to completely destroy other cities, man, woman and child? The God of the Old testament was an a****** and I cannot reconcile that kind of God with what Christianity is now pushing. If their God is the same yesterday, today and forever - how do we explain this?

Pope Leo XIV is a true believer of the idea that people should not let the IGO rule their lives under the cloak of the Christian faith.

I’m not a Catholic but I am in complete agreement with Pope Leo. He’s 💯 correct!

Thank you Pope Leo. This is the hardest part in the hardest struggle for me with my religion and what’s going on in the world. I can’t understand people‘s perception of Jesus and God and I am so sick of hearing our Lord in Jesus name Blasphemed. Christianity is taking it in the shorts! All I see is God crying from above keep on preaching the right way Pope Leo and maybe just maybe hearts will turn and realize the right way.😥🙏

Love Pope Leo this Holy Week felt very special. His journey from Holy Thursday was incredibly moving.
Thank you Holy Father you are amazing.
With Love & Respect

Hell yes!

Thank you Pope Leo, your messages are filling the world with hope, they carry the true spirit of the Gospel. Thank you for following the righteous path of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Organized religion lost me decades ago. But this type of thinking and messaging will always have a place.

I'm liking this pope very much. That's even though I've never been Catholic and nolonger consider myself Christian.

In these troubled times isn’t it strange how you begin to love people like Pope Leo, president Zelensky, Mark Carney, Kier Starmer, Macron, Sanchez, even the Iranian spokespeople oh and not forgetting the boss of course, de Niro, Lady Gaga and so so many others not afraid to speak up against a tyrant.

Even though I'm not Catholic I hear so many encouraging and clear thinking ideas, thoughts, and words from this mortal man. He is out front and so believable in his words, i love this openess and sharing of goodness and love. 🇨🇦

Shout out a holy BOOM!! That’s what a REAL Christian Leader preaches. And he speaks truth to power. ❤️ our Pope Leo.

I may become catholic. This man is divine.

Same ✌🏼❤️

Read The War Prayer by Mark Twain!

I love him, feeling so proud to have him as my pope ❤️

Came at the right time ! We are blessed.

I’m not Catholic or even Christian, but I like this guy!

Pope Leo is here for an important time. Only Pope Leo can raise his voice from authenticity and understanding of the United States experience. His warnings are real, for everyone. Not just Catholics.

I appreciate that Pope Leo keeps repeating this message. It shows his authenticity.

I'm wondering what this ass clown thinks about the muslim population taking over america like it has on all other countries.Yet he just sits back in his nice protected little vatican and has nothing to say about it.He ain't no representative of god or jesus.He is just a fake prophet

You’re very very stupid lol
You’re also the worst example of Christianity. God knows your soul and he knows you’re a piece of shit

Yada yada yada. You lot were responsible for the Crusades. So, maybe shut the fuck up. The ONLY person I will listen to is a non-believer. WE are the only real pacifists.

Amen 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I’m not Catholic, but Pope Leo is a leader for all of us. I follow him and pray for him

Amen 🙏🏽

I’m not of the Catholic faith but I admire this man’s integrity and courage and wish him well.

And this is why hegseth wouldn't allow Catholic Mass to be held at the Pentagon.

Hegseyh is one highlight short of a blonde!

Maybe this is wrong, I don’t know, but I’m glad the great Pope Leo is a middle aged white male from the United States.

Amen.

(and certain govt "leaders" need to read Twain's "War Prayer" over & over until the idea seeps in.)

He makes me want convert to Catholicism.

Amen! 🙏

I'm not Catholic but this Pope could make me seriously consider it. ❤️

Jesus’s teachings were and are a paradox. They reflect the true nature of the universe. If we understand this paradox, then humility is strength and surrender is truly victory. We actually can love our neighbor, even if they are the “enemy”. It is a matter of letting go of what appears to be obvious but is, in fact erroneous. Ironically, I have found that generally, only non-believers are open to embracing this paradox. It requires a paradigm shift in thinking unavailable to evangelicals.
