But now we need church recognizing a msitake that still have huge consequences on our present. Others animals. Slaving and murdering others animals while vegetal options are avaiable should be a terrible sin under christianism logic. How being cruel and abusing power over animals that feel pain and have councioness can still be accepted?

This Pope is so "woke" that believes they know more about the Catholic religion even though most MAGA people have never read their whole Bible.

Maybe it's time to do your research into the candidates before voting in the November 2026 general election. Please vote for the candidate.

I don't say his atonement could be or not important in general, but what has this to do with his words?
Is important to talk about that in response of what he said?
Let's say Newton was an awful man that made horrible things, would I say he shouldn't talk about Newton's law?
If his words were wrong, I'd replay to his words
(His words are important even if wrong as some of million Catholics could follow them)
PS I'm not catholic

“It is impossible not to feel deep sorrow when contemplating the immense suffering & humiliation endured by so many in stark contrast to their immeasurable dignity as persons infinitely loved by the Lord. For this, in the name of the church, I sincerely ask for pardon,”Leo wrote.
