https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/03/world/middleeast/pope-iran-war.html?smid=nytcore-ios-shareIn a homily during a Mass on Thursday morning before #Easter, #PopeLeo said that the #Christian mission has often been “distorted by a desire for domination, entirely foreign to the way of Jesus Christ.”
Since the #US & #Israel began bombing #Iran in late February, the pope has consistently called for an end to the violence & a return to dialogue to resolve the conflict.

But without naming #Hegseth, #PopeLeo has also pointed out the ways in which #Christianity has been marshaled for purposes that the pope says do not align with Catholic teaching.
“We tend to consider ourselves powerful when we dominate, victorious when we destroy our equals, great when we are feared,” the pope said in the homily…. “God has given us an example — not of how to dominate, but of how to liberate; not of how to destroy life, but of how to give it.”

@Nonilex a powerful reminder that true strength lies in liberation and giving life, not in domination.
